    "After all we did for the company!"

    LMAO.

    Vishal Garg, the CEO of US-based digital-first homeownership company Better.com, reportedly laid off 900 of his employees in the US and in India on a Zoom call last week, giving them what could be the biggest shocker just ahead of the holiday season. A video of the Zoom call is being widely shared on the internet, with people slamming the founder-CEO for his actions.

    "If you're on this call, you are part of the unlucky group that is being laid off," Garg told the staff during the Zoom video call on Wednesday, reported CNN Business. "Your employment here is terminated effective immediately."

    What's ironic is the majority of them were inclusion/diversity left-wing nutjobs.

    you know its maximum irony when people whose civilization have over 200 years worth of toilet history are ruled by people with no documented history of toilet use whatsoever until 20 years ago and whose civilization still practises public defecation on public roads and streets.

    That's still not ironic you fucking retard. He could have been crouching in a cess-pit, squirting the runs from his ass, and that sacking would simply have been an even more efficient use of work time than it would otherwise have been.

    looks like your irony sensors are faulty.

    disconnect, check, clean up and reconnect.

    It's ironic because their jobs were inclusion and diversity, but they ended up excluded and diverged.

    Heard a recording / short mention of this guy played on the radio, I'm not seeing what's so bad or controversial. Was he supposed to have a bunch of managers do the exact same thing, but 900 times individually instead of him just doing it once?

    A lot of people don't like firing their workers, he got his hands dirty doing the deed and now his managers don't have to feel any guilt about doing his bidding. And his way isn't a long drawn out process where rumors spread and EVERYONE wonders omg are they gonna call me in next? seems quick and humane

    It'd be interesting to know how the 900 were chosen.

    I'd assume their divisions weren't closing, and the company wasn't exiting specific markets, and the company didn't suddenly find itself with a shortage of work, so I'd say they were targeted for termination. The fact that he says that the company needs to cut costs and doesn't say "well, we don't have work for you to do anymore" makes me think that. Could even be a rank and yank exercise.

    Usually the department heads are told “get me a list of x amount of people by Friday” and they select who they think their loss would be the least disruptive to the business or whose position seems the most redundant. Or they pick who they like the least. That’s at least been my experience.
