Ask HN: Any similar cases to OAI; 90% of employees forcing a board retreat?
This seems unprecedented. Incidentally ChatGPT agrees. Im interested in reading about cases where employees cause a board to retreat from its position.

- dayjah 3y agoThanks! Stats here are 25,000 employees, first protest was approx. 300 (~1%), which grew to 5,000 (20%). En route one protest included 68 delivery drivers which left store shelves depleted. I expect that helped highlight the impact of protest to the employees that were not yet protesting.

- suoduandao3 3y agoWeirdly, there was a very similar story a few days before the OAI debacle. Some kind of Jungian synchronicity going on I think. https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-67348861 https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-67348861
