Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Employees who remain may be less loyal to the company. These employees are more difficult for managers to motivate and maintain high productivity. The employees feel increased competition among each other. They have the feeling of being the survivors and to not want to work together. Downsizing may foster issues for the survivors. Unless the work processes have been revamped, major tasks of jobs that were cut may still be required. Usually that means increased workloads for the remaining employees. This can lead to longer workdays, creating conflicts for employees between their work and personal lives. It can also lead to greater anxiety, more stress on the job, and increased absenteeism. For the supervisor, these too can dramatically affect work unit productivity.
