On the other hand at least they’re not using cute pet names to refer to fired personnel, so that’s better.

- bosie 4y agoWhat have I missed?
- ayewo 4y agoThere was the recent use of "Dutonians" by Pager Duty's CEO https://www.pagerduty.com/blog/letter-to-employees/ https://www.pagerduty.com/blog/letter-to-employees/
- kasey_junk 4y agoZooms layoff note earlier this week referenced employees as “Zoomies”.
- JTbane 4y agoI'd prefer "Zoomers".

- pjam 4y agoPretty sure your first paragraph was enough, don’t really see the point of bringing up a rape victim example. I mean, “dutonians” from PagerDuty is enough to illustrate how ridiculous this whole thing is
- mc32 4y agoThanks for the feedback. I’ve toned it down. However I want companies to understand how terrible that malpractice is.
- throwboatyface 4y agoThat's beyond a crude example, that's just fucking gross. Maybe don't compare getting fired to being sexually assaulted?
- mc32 4y agoI’ve edited it. I wanted to illustrate the extreme disconnect between their comms and how it’s received by affected people.
- notinfuriated 4y agoOoh, they also didn't use the word "impacted." Kudos to them.
