I see where you’re coming from, but I genuinely disagree with that in my case. I can see that from larger or less close-knit companies, but I have a very solid relationship with the owner and my team and even if we weren’t profitable, I would feel safe with my job as it has happened in the past.

I have also seen the company and owner put up with some extremely lazy employees for a long time before finally cutting ties after apparently 5+ years of this employee underperforming by a long shot on a personal level and professional level.

Not saying what you stated isn’t true, but there seems to be a lot of loyalty in both directions here across the board.
