This company seems to not have an idea on how to handle a PR disaster.
- mullingitover 14y agoThey need some kind of evangelist who will rally the community around them.
- orangethirty 14y agoStop. Just stop. Its not nice to make fun of someone who got fired. Doesn't matter why or how. The person is going through a very hard time right now, and you should, at the very least, feel sorry for the situation. What they need to do is hire someone who will simply take care of the situation by assuring their whole base that this sort of thing will: not happen again, and will be dealt in private. Everything blew up because they chose to handle it publicly.
- mullingitover 14y ago> The person is going through a very hard time right now Hey, at least she doesn't have three kids to take care of. Seriously though, what about everyone else at SendGrid who is suffering through this ordeal because of this one bad employee? They're going through a hard time, too, and they really do need a good PR person. Badly.
- orangethirty 14y agoMy point is that you should not joke about her situation. I'm not defending her, nor saying that everyone should take pity.
- mullingitover 14y agoNot being able to joke about things is what got us into this mess. We must joke our way out, 'tis the only way.
