Anyway, it's official.  Hostess Brands is closing down and entering liquidation.  If the unions thought management were bluffing here, they were sadly mistaken.

Yeah, I bet those union employees are wishing they hadn't voted to go on strike now.

If a strike is all it takes to force a company to shutter its doors, than I dare say the future prospects for said company were pretty terrible in the first place. Those employees might still have their jobs, but certainly not for much longer.

It depends.  If the company views them as unwilling to take pay cuts, not much is going to help.  Not that executives should be exempt either.

Neither the bureaucratic company nor its detestable products will be missed.

A rare moment where I find myself agreeing with Vosem!

They'll probably sell off the recipes.
