Could you imagine being in an actual face-to-face meeting with the CEO of a tech company, and after you present your concerns she just, apropos of absolutely fucking nothing, belts out “WAFFLES”? Our lives are being run and ruined by people who could get shown up at their jobs by seven year olds.
The new CEO of the company I work at just had a “ask the leadership team anything” meeting, but threw a fit about the tone of the questions being negative. One question was “morale across the board is noticably negative, what are your plans to help address this?” to which she sat silent for an uncomfortable amount of time and then said “I have no answer for this” and then muted her mic.
We all know layoffs are coming. She turned that meeting into the classic “you’re either with us or against us” thing. But she’s so petulant she couldn’t even fake civility.
My partner ran into a similar issue with her school board. They cut staff even though the district is fiscally healthy and then patted themselves on the back for being a diverse, all-female school board. There’s something deeply wrong with the whole model of how things get run.
this new CEO came from the boston consulting group who are well known for being hired to come in and do mass layoffs… but what it means for her to be our CEO is probably some next level shit… maybe they’re gonna gut the leadership team, or maybe they’re going to just sell the company… no idea, but it ain’t good
