I don't think taking action to fill a hole is indicative of not caring.
I'm all for filling holes!
Hole filling action, even!
True but there's also absolutely no reason to think they care. Even if someone dies. Because they really don't. So it feels extra soulless when they send out the email redistributing tasks right after the generic condolences email that goes out to the whole floor
I mean, how do you gauge how much someone cares? What would make you think someone cared (either at work or anywhere else)? I think all actions by a company would make people think it's just an unempathetic gesture. Even if it was a small company and the employee was there for very long and was actually missed.
