The previous tweet is also wild:
"[...] But our culture is to praise in public, and criticize in private."
Like seriously? In a thread where he’s publicly criticizing the actions of his employees, he really has the chutzpah to point to some corporate "value" about expressing grievances privately?
- skybrian 4y agoI can think of a reasonable argument for this. After something is made public, responding to it in public might sometimes be necessary. It would be better if the dispute never became public, but too late now. And after taking a grievance public, it seems somewhat unreasonable not to expect a public response? Though often, companies don’t respond publicly, and that might be wiser. And responding on Twitter seems like a bad move compared to a blog post or press release? But many people can’t help themselves.
- seoaeu 4y agoI don't blame him for responding publicly. I do however think Armstrong is behaving blatantly hypocritically by calling out his employees for violating the corporate values (that he wrote!), while he himself ignores them out of expedience.
