The PagerDuty CEO quotes MLK in the layoff notice:
> None of this would be possible without you, our leadership, and our board — thank you for your grit and resilience, your commitment to our customers and your support of our values and people. I am reminded in moments like this, of something Martin Luther King said, that “the ultimate measure of a [leader] is not where [they] stand in the moments of comfort and convenience, but where [they] stand in times of challenge and controversy.” PagerDuty is a leader that stands behind its customers, its values, and our vision — for an equitable world where we transform critical work so all teams can delight their customers and build trust.
“the ultimate measure of a [leader] is not where [they] stand in the moments of comfort and convenience, but where [they] stand in times of challenge and controversy.”
I don't think the challenges and controversies MLK was thinking of at the time had to due with cost-cutting measures by a corporate entity.

- Rapzid 4y agoPagerDuty is.. woke. Just saying that matter-of-fact; people who work or have worked there know what I mean. If you don't like being voluntold to record thank you messages to Georgia get-out-the-vote workers, whites-not-welcome Slack channels, and Slack bots telling you to not use "you guys" in every channel including private channels.. You won't like PagerDuty much.
