In an article by the European cockpit association (subject of the thread started by Samca) there's the following statement:

Wizz Air, another airline making extensive use of atypical employment, announced it was cutting almost 20% of its workforce and remaining frontline staff take a 14% pay cut – whilst its CEO boasts about the comfortable cash reserves of his airline. In a memo to crew, Wizz Air presents its criteria for laying off pilots such as “willingness to work on days off”, “absence history” and “cooperation with the company”.

Was such a memo indeed sent to the crews? Or is it another rumour circulated by the media?
