Punishment will continue until morale improves

Is that like a business 101 rulebook, or are you being sarcastic? Not a sociologist, so AFAIK, this could work. Normally. Not here though I suspect. People just pack up and leave, since most are young and with no families, and there is no advancements. And for many, they think to themselves "you can't pay me as little as little I can work". Seriously, nobody has ever gotten a sack for underperforming.

"The beatings will continue until morale improves."

It's a common sarcastic remark with possible origins in the navy. It highlights leaders' often ass-backwards way of punishing low performance in a way that will only result in even worse performance.
