Plot:
When the publicly held corporation Global Transportation Systems, or GTX, is downsized many employees are fired. Chief Financial Officer Gene McClary () challenges GTX CEO James Salinger ()’s strategy of employee cutbacks and questions the ethics of spending money to build new corporate headquarters while laying off employees. Salinger asserts that the deep cuts are necessary to increase profits, to increase the stock price and discourage a rumored hostile takeover of the company.
Later, it is determined that an additional round of lay-offs is necessary. Senior manager Phil Woodward (), who, over the course of 30 years, had risen from the factory floor to the corporate offices) is also fired. When McClary demands that senior manager Sally Wilcox () rehire Woodward immediately, she tells him that he, too, is being fired.
