when "don't talk about politics" also means "I'm immediately dissolving all DEI initiatives and handing them off to our one hr person" the word 'talk' is doing a lot of heavy lifting

our culture is full of people who make it solely because they never had to face an actual challenge in their life, one problem with people like that is they’re super fragile and melt down the instant anything actually goes wrong it’s also why they love inventing hero stories for themselves, like if you asked donald trump, who failsoned his way all the way to the White House, he’d probably talk about having to hustle in the 80s with only the 90 million his dad gave him

Blotto_Otter posted:pleasant collection of words from Jason, but a simple "mea culpa" is the easy part, the hard part will be dealing with a situation in which 1) you've lost 30% of your headcount almost overnight, 2) you did so in a way that likely reinforces any preexisting cultural problems among the remaining employees, and 3) your recruiting pipeline is now going to self-select along those lines because you did all this in the most embarrassingly public way possible. Good luck Jase, y'all are noted management experts, I'm sure you'll get this under control the most important takeaway to me is that they didn't fire the nazi

executive ego gratification should be an "extra" task but to most executives it's a core function of the business and if she wants to watch her employees scuttle around like a personal ant farm because it makes her feel good by god she's going to make it happen

if apple wants the best people from advertising this is what the "best" looks like, that whole industry is run by psychopaths top to bottom

rotor posted:like i mean i've interviewed plenty of people that have written books I've never read, and the idea that its some kind of wild oversight that no one sat down and read this novel a dude wrote seems weird googling a review of it doesn't seem like too much of an ask though

yeah I forgot what stack ranking was called but there's basically no way that can lead to good outcomes, I remember reading just the most insane stories on mini microsoft
