I am baffled by the responses of some other commenters. How some can still defend the CEO here is beyond my wildest guess.
Sure, the boat and the house stuff are not really things that should put the CEO in bad light, that much we can all agree on.
Though I must say, if you're a CEO and you make such an effort to showcase every good thing going on in your life on Instagram, while you are firing 90% of your employees, that's just bad optics. I know I would be mad.
Secondly, another mistake the CEO did here is to not set the right expectations. How does "money runs out by November 2022" equate to "you're being fired this September"? It's an asshole move not to let your staff know that if the deal doesn't go through, layoffs are imminent.
Also, the comment about the CEO reaching out privately to people being fired -- I mean, wow. How low can you go? I have never been the company and CEO worshipping kind of guy, but I have mad respect for my CEO because he has constantly proven to be someone who cares about employees. Whereas this guy even lies to the media about something that can be easily disproven.
