From the SMS quoted in TFA, seems like he at least thought he and his colleagues were being continually mistreated by upper management:
“They was firing me. I just beat them to it. Nothing personal, the upper management need to see what they guys on the floor is capable of doing when they keep getting mistreated. I took one for the team.”
“Sorry if I made my peers look bad, but sometimes it take something like what I did to wake the upper management up.”

- mfoy_ 10y agoI had an IT internship where my manager handed me a master key to the building and root logins for quite a few boxes. I also had the admin credentials to every user computer in the building. Literally the "keys to the kingdom". Sometimes the default level of trust is just really high...

Not having a great command of the English language doesn't seem to be a huge barrier to technical roles that are fairly insulated from the business side of things in enterprise environments, IMO.
