I guess true face of a company, similar to a person, shows up when things are not going super well. When money is free/infinite and you’re partying like 1634 (associative pic) it’s easy to have great perks, no accountability, etc. When shit hits the fan, you see how much of “we care about employees” there actually is - layoffs feel random and preferential, strategy in shambles, everyone’s running around like headless chickens.
@aras I know nothing about what is going on inside... but looking from the outside, some of the layoffs were very surprising for sure (Mike Acton??)
@msinilo @aras I doubt he’s a layoff - suspect it’s a timing thing (he’d have had a long lock-in I’d guess).
@neilhenning @aras @msinilo oh I hadn't heard about mike acton yet?? I hope he just left because firing him would've been ridiculously stupid
