I just read from a different article, they’re laying off 5% around the world… and using AI instead.

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?

My money is on Clownflare, truly a match made in hell.

Probably Oracle. It’s evil enough for their liking.
muusemuuse@lemm.ee 10 months ago
If Oracle buys crowdstrike they will lose even more customers. That is a toxic brand. Anybody who can avoid them does.

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”.
rottingleaf@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I actually like potatoes, the safest food in terms of digestion and, sorry, body odors. With some sunflower or olive oil and salt potatoes are actually delicious. Add just some beef or herring, and some raw onions cut in rings (preferably the red sweet ones, but not necessarily), and maybe some thyme, and it becomes the food that should be.
Except I’m too lazy to go grocery shopping for that herring alone.

Were they all in QA?
mostlikelyaperson@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Clownstrike doesn’t know what that is, but they will be sure to ask an LLM about it some time!

What a fucking shit company.

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.
Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 10 months ago
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…
rottingleaf@lemmy.world 10 months ago
That’s fine, a human or any other life too only grow until they die.
The problem is that some companies don’t die when they should.
That includes Microsoft and Apple and Intel, among others.
WhiteBurrito@lemmy.world 10 months ago
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

This headline… Could mean we’re laying off 1 million people and the 500 people left better keep up.
