    Sure hate how this article talks about employees wanted raises as being pompous and cocky and then spins it like we should feel bad for tech companies and their need to cut costs. Which is their fault for rapidly expanding without much planning for the future and then “cutting costs” when they realize it’s not sustainable

      I especially love the part where they say that X/Twitter not hiring after their layoffs has left many people wondering what those employees were doing in the first place. As someone who has never been very “into” Twitter, even I can see that the site has gone way downhill since Musk and his layoffs. I don’t have to wonder what the laid off employees were doing because I know by a quick glance that whatever they were doing, they were doing it better than it’s being done now.
