Unprofessional senior management with no concern for employees - Development Scientist Quotient Biodiagnostics Employee Review

When I started working here in 2018 Quotient was a company that cared about its employees. The consensus amongst those that work here now is that this is no longer the case. In mid-2019 there was a small restructuring (no job losses) in my department which included one senior manager creating a brand new small team. Positions within this team were limited and several candidates applied internally and were interviewed. I was one of the lucky people to be accepted. Or so I thought. The team was to be led by a senior scientist with two scientists beneath him (including me). The date for officially forming the team was pushed back and pushed back. When the senior scientist went on paternity leave, we were told that the team would form when he returned. When he returned we were told it would start in the new year. Roll on January 2020 and my first week back following Christmas and New Year. Monday: Business as usual. I have a meeting with a manager to discuss a course that I am going on. Tuesday: Meeting with the new team as everyone involved is expecting it to officially form very soon. A company-wide meeting announces another restructuring. Nobody beneath senior management knew that this was happening prior to this point. Everyone is made to clap while all of the senior managers give themselves promotions. Wednesday: Last-minute meeting to discuss the new restructuring in our department. The new team no longer exists as the senior manager in charge of it has been promoted. Everyone has been kept in the dark. At around 4pm I am taken out of the lab for an unscheduled meeting. In the room is the senior manager and the head of HR. I am told that I no longer have a place within the company. I am escorted to my desk to collect my belongings and I am escorted out of the building without being allowed to say goodbye to anybody. Several other people also lost their jobs that afternoon, all so the senior managers could afford their pay rises. The way that this was handled was degrading and highly unprofessional. Through lies and deceit, senior management made it clear to everyone that they do not care about anyone beneath them. TL;DR: I was expecting to start a brand new role at the beginning of the year and I got made redundant instead by the same senior manager who created the new role.
