Seems like Tesla's leadership is having an Elon-meltdown! With layoffs and E-2's departing faster than a SpaceX launch, especially with five of them leaving, I'm starting to think Tesla's next innovation might be a self-driving company...without the drivers!
After today’s layoffs, lots of failed leaders in multiple Block organizations remain. So wild that so many ineffective leaders remain after this round of layoffs, when they were the ultimate cause. Pathetic that Jack didn’t take action on poor performing leadership like he promised. #layoff
I work for a small, but growing, SaaS startup - began as an Implementation lead but have developed a Sales and Marketing role for myself (nobody else was doing this prior - just the founders).

Whenever this happened, the news would be announced to the entire company through a #team-updates slac...Read more
Elon had a bad quarter and likely everything is bad but he showed the hope for 2025 for an EV that is still on papers and stock shot up. Meta as a business is strong, hugely profitable, high margins, exceeded goals and expectations. But presented disappointing guidance - guidance based on not sure ...Read more
Just a quick reminder that one of Amazon's LPs is "Success and Scale Bring Broad Responsibility". If you need to lay off a considerable chunk of your workforce because you overhired, then there's no "Broad Responsibility" in your "Success and Scale". Just wanted to point out how ironic it is.

These arts majors dipshits delegate everything to engineering teams who pick up the paltry work the dipshits were hired to do. Overhiring leads to deflated wages and higher layoffs. 2...Read more

I’m checking out Meta job board and a little surprised they don’t list seniority in job titles like Staff, Senior, etc. I do see they have some eng postings that have “(Leadership)” in the title - are these Staff+ positions? Tc: 550ish
