You’re not working hard enough

Last summer I started in a new position at a company I've been with for 15 years. I'm very lucky that it is 100% remote and was even luckier that the workload was such that I was busy, but not so busy that I couldn't take my time and do the job relatively without stress. That changed today. My supervisors, in their infinite wisdom, decided that people didn't have enough work to do so they transferred 4 people to a different department that didn't really need them. They literally said it was because we didn't have a large enough workload and they wanted to redistribute everything across fewer people.
