Why is efficiency in quotations?

Zuck pissed billions of dollars into a strong wind with nothing to show for it. Now he's concerned that parts of the company with actual deliverables are spending too much money so he's packing some cash back into the ledger at the expense of around eleven thousand people who didn't fuck up as badly as he did.

It's in quotations because actual efficiency has nothing to do with it. It's just the word he's chosen to use.

Bingo! Left there but was part of the company that, you know, actually made money. Kind of crazy that they blew so much a year on vaporware and then had the balls to cut people in f'king ads of all places.

Inside Zuck's own head he's a genius, it's just that the rest of us just haven't realised it yet. It's only outside of it that he's an advertising exec who got lucky that one time.

Because cutting cost to give the illusion of “efficiency” doesn’t yield said “efficiencies”

Because they say efficiency but they're doing really inefficient ways
