they got high on their own supply. they started to believe the narrative that workers are all replaceable. they're not supposed to believe it - they're supposed to convince us to believe it

There’s that and they all hired like crazy in 2020-2021 during low interest rates. Since 2023 they’ve been laying off because they have too many people and certain tax things changed (thanks Trump!)

Someone on Twitter said they might claim it’s AI but it’s likely that RSUs are vesting and are getting expensive, so they lay off people and then hire newer people that don’t get paid as much

yeah i feel the same. i think all of that is pretty standard when it comes to this stuff. cost cutting by intentional turnover. i'm more so talking about the careless nature of it. the sloppiness makes me suspect they're believing their own propaganda
