You don't need $10 billion in revenue. You could just coast along and only hit, what, $9.8 billion? And then you wouldn't have to ruin 500 people's lives. I'm betting the CEO has a bonus scheduled if he hits this goal.
Say it with me boys and girls… Infinite growth is not sustainable…
Exactly.
This is why I'm happy I work for a Family owned company. They know some years revenue just won't be bigger and that's ok. I've only seen like one wave of "layoffs" and even then most of the people that left just took an early retirement deal coz they were going to retire that year anyways, so that basically fixed the re organization that needed to happen
I hear what you’re saying, but revenue isn’t profit.
Layoffs.
Otherwise known as "fuck you for working your ass off to make us rich, we're taking your health care, benefits and retirement. Your rent is now in jeopardy and we recommend potatoes at , or in place of, every meal".
That July 2024 outage must have hit their forecast pretty hard. Best wishes to those affected :(
Yeah, I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner frankly.
What a fucking shit company.
I just read from a different article, they’re laying off 5% around the world.. and using AI instead.
Were they all in QA?
Clownstrike doesn’t know what that is, but they will be sure to ask an LLM about it some time!
Well... Time to do some strike with the crowd
Guess getting p0vvN3d cut their legs out after all. Who's going to buy them, y'think?
Probably Oracle. It's evil enough for their liking.
If Oracle buys crowdstrike they will lose even more customers. That is a toxic brand. Anybody who can avoid them does.
My money is on Clownflare, truly a match made in hell.
This headline... Could mean we're laying off 1 million people and the 500 people left better keep up.
