And? Are you seriously suggesting they would split into 100 separate companies to have your arbitrary 300 employees?
If that is what you are suggesting, do you have any idea how unworkable it would be to have 4 or more separate companies under the single roof at our location? Does I.T. become it's own company that then has to be hired by each other company separately or does each company hire their own I.T. department, build their own server room, buy their own servers and network infrastructure... on and on. Do the new department-companies sell parts to each other so they can make their products?
And that doesn't even begin to address the massive cost increases from increasing wages to $23.50 on top of the added administrative cost of running separate businesses.
In other words, your plan sounds ludicrous.
He just thinking outside of the box!
He is also thinking OUTSIDE government rules and regulations.

PER OSHA "water closet" means a toilet facility maintained within a toilet room for the purpose of both defecation and urination and which is flushed with water.
Minimum number of employees' water closets
1 to 15.................................................... 1
16 to 35................................................... 2
36 to 55................................................... 3
56 to 80................................................... 4
81 to 110................................................. 5
111 to 150................................................6
Over 150 ..................................................1 for every 40 employees.
With his magic figure of 300 that means
Every facility of your 100 facilities of 300 employees exactly would mean a total of 100 facilities X 10 water closets per facility or 1,000 water closets.
So instead of a OSHA inspector having to visit just ONE site to see if there are 1,000 water closets the inspector would have to make 100 different visits to verify there
were 10 water closets per each 300 employee facility.
Think of it. Government bureaucracy in action.
And this is just ONE rule and regulation that limiting employees to 300 per company would involve.
Over the past three years, the bound edition of the Code of Federal Regulations has increased by 11,327 pages – a 7.4 percent increase
from Jan. 1, 2009 to Dec. 31, 2011. In 2009, the increase in the number of pages was the most over the last decade – 3.4 percent or 5,359 pages.
Over the past decade, the federal government has issued almost 38,000 new final rules, according to the draft of the 2011 annual report to Congress on federal regulations by the Office of Management and Budget. That brought the total at the end of 2011 to 169,301 pages.
Seventy percent of the regulations were economic, accounting for $1.236 trillion of the annual cost. The other regulations were, in order of cost, environment regulations ($281 billion), tax compliance ($160 billion) and occupational safety and health and homeland security ($75 billion).
And this really well thought out plan to limit employees to 300 per company ... I don't think it envisioned the 169,301 pages of JUST FEDERAL Rules and Regulations!
