Is Tumblr still a thing?
"To the hard working (current and former) Tweeps out there who made all this happen: Thank you for pouring your heart and soul into this place " Tweeps? Is that really a term of endearment they refer to each other as? Really?
Is this a thing most people refer to other employees as most of the time? No, but it helps corporate create an image of a fun, playful workplace. I think it's utter bullshit, but you know, to each their own.

Feels less condescending than Apple "Geniuses" or Best Buy "Nerds", and pretty in line with "Googlers", "Toasters" or "Hulugans".

A low level IC would not be called while on leave to be fired. But when the company needs a change of excecutive leadership, they aren’t going to wait months because you had a baby. I’m sure he’s being paid through the end of his leave period and besides is compensated in the millions.
