The person in the linked tweet isn't one of the people affected. I'm drawing some inferences here, but she's contrasting the perceived lack of support from the company for those affected by the npm layoffs with npm's public brand on the Internet. If layoffs happened and npm did the minimum legally required, that's a fair criticism to make, IMO. npm's hiring page says: > We are responsible adults with diverse backgrounds and interests, who take our careers and our lives seriously. We believe that the best way to iterate towards success is by taking care of ourselves, our families, our users, and one another. > We aim for a sustainable approach to work and life, because that is the best way to maximize long-term speed, while retaining clarity of vision. Compassion is our strategy. @seldo (npm co-founder) frequently tweets about people in the community who he perceives are not performing to his moral standard. I don't have any details, so I'm taking all of this with a grain of salt, but if it's true, it's something of a betrayal of their brand.
