Massive layoffs. And now all you see is promotions across the board on LinkedIn? Why am I NOT surprised. Like this wasn’t planned? You will Never be Premier

We can agree on ELT made bad decisions one after another, but the real issue is that we have way too many 30 year old VPs, directors, senior managers, and senior advisors. Think about it.

Been here since December 2011. It was wild being on the other side of the layoffs this time. We walked so many good folks out on that Tuesday. Wednesday morning at 8am, I got the call on my off-day! Being part of the security team it was hard. Went... — read more
