#13I hate this so much. I once worked at a place that did a layoff and caught a person who’d been a two-time intern and had just been hired out of college that same week. There’s no reason the company couldn’t have re-assigned her elsewhere. She’d already proven her value! What a waste to throw away the opportunity for a known-good new hire who could ramp up quickly, and what a horrible thing to inflict on someone just out of school. I know the execs deciding to do the layoffs don’t care about those details but at some level someone made the decision to pick this person over someone else. What monsters these corporations force us to become to each other.

Right past self employment and small business to fully on the dole? This country has a labor problem because it has a monopolization epidemic. It's what no court or advocate seems to consider when it endorses these mega mergers strictly for the impacts it has on one market, the products, and entirely ignores impacts on the other, which is labor.

#17Sales teams are often the first and hardest hit. In theory this makes sense, but it can also completely hobble the whole company.

#18Good for her for saying all the quiet parts out loud. Great post. I'm a big Matthew Prince fan, a big CloudFlare fan, and a shareholder. Sadly, this rubs me the wrong way...

I was literally in a meeting this morning where a co-worker mentioned he had reached out to Cloudflare a few days ago to ask about buying services and has not gotten a response. Certainly not a great start.

Maybe a benefit of sales layoffs will be a real pricing page! Hard to "Contact Sales" when there isn't any.
