I believe that in the minds of the vast majority of friends, civil servants are a very stable job.
After becoming a civil servant, although it is not possible to become rich, it can at least ensure that we have no worries about food and clothing, and have a high social status and social recognition, and can better play our personal value in our own jobs.
Therefore, the job of civil servant has also become the first choice for many highly educated intellectuals. But during this time, the industry has undergone major changes. Who would have thought that the streamlining of civil servants was not finished, and that there would be large-scale layoffs in urban investment companies!
First, why should urban investment companies lay off employees on a large scale?
Regarding the keyword of layoffs, I believe many friends have heard it many times. Especially in the three years of the continuous recurrence of the new crown epidemic, many Internet giants with strong assets have not resisted the real economic pressure and carried out several rounds of large-scale layoffs.
What is unexpected is that now that the era of the new crown epidemic is over, there are still companies that will carry out large-scale layoffs. And these companies are not private enterprises that are completely self-financing, but local urban investment companies with corresponding guarantees.
From this, it is not difficult to see that local finances are indeed facing greater pressure now, and even local urban investment companies have not been able to stand alone.
The main task of local urban investment companies is to help local governments promote infrastructure construction and solve capital problems.
They may issue bonds or seek loans directly from outside to raise funds to support the implementation of local infrastructure projects.
In the past, most regions attached great importance to infrastructure development and were willing to invest in it. Under such circumstances, the role of local urban investment companies is also very important, and the workload is extremely large, requiring a lot of manpower and material support.
However, the situation has now changed 180 degrees, local infrastructure construction projects are cooling down, and the workload and task pressure of local urban investment companies have also decreased.
In order to save labor costs, many urban investment companies have decided to carry out a large-scale layoff activity to reduce unnecessary human resources, thereby reducing economic expenditure and saving development costs.
The reason for this is also the rising cost of financing for local urban investment companies, a choice they must make in order to avoid an increase in their own debt.
Second, the development dilemma of urban investment companies
According to media reports, urban investment companies in many regions have begun to lay off large-scale layoffs and arrangements. Even without large-scale layoffs, there have been wage cuts.
The urban investment company in Henan's Anyang High-tech Development Zone announced at the end of last year that it would cut more than 50% of its workforce.
A city investment company in Jinan, Shandong Province, also announced earlier this year that it would cut at least 80 percent of its workforce. There is also the Chengdu company in Yubei District, Chongqing, which directly lays off 100%! In other words, the city investment company will be dissolved directly.
From these real-world cases, it is not difficult to see that the current development crisis of urban investment companies is indeed quite serious.
Under the crisis of capital chain failure, if you cannot stabilize your development through large-scale layoffs and salary cuts, then the next fate may be to wait for bankruptcy and liquidation.
Of course, there are also some local urban investment companies that have taken risks and tried to try new industries and achieve independent transformation.
The stakes are very high, and while the strikers do have a chance to survive, the process is quite difficult. Not to mention a local urban investment company, even if it is a well-run private enterprise, it is not easy to achieve industrialization transformation.
From the perspective of objective conditions, the biggest advantage of local urban investment companies in competition lies in the land resources and administrative dependence behind them.
However, in market competition, these advantages cannot play a corresponding role, and it is difficult to compare with those private enterprises that are accustomed to market-oriented competition.
In addition, in the process of transformation, these local urban investment companies are bound to accumulate corresponding talent reserves, technical strength, and some management talents.
All of this requires a certain amount of time to prepare, and the most important thing is to plan a positioning and direction that is more suitable for your future development as soon as possible.
All in all, if local urban investment companies want to solve the current development difficulties through transformation, they must be prepared to invest a lot and persist for a long time.
In the process of development, stable financial support is also required. If the problem of the capital chain cannot be solved first, then all this is just empty talk.
At this stage, the reason why local urban investment companies want to lay off employees on a large scale, or even reduce the scale of employees by more than 50%, is mainly affected by the actual environment. In the process of development, difficulties are always inevitable.
It is believed that after surviving this difficulty, local urban investment companies will be able to return with a new look and better contribute to the development of local finances and national economy.
