Many years ago, the company I worked for sent part of its manufacturing capability to Mexico as a cost-cutting move. For two years, they worked with the Mexican employees to train them on the proper techniques for building and testing quality products.
I guess what you mean is that the company had it's employees train the Mexicans before the employees were given the pink slip. Sort of the economic equivalent of forcing prisoners to dig their own graves before they shooting them.

In some cases, that's true, but not at that particular company. They had enough other work to keep the employees occupied. All that we were spinning off was an older product line.
