15% of Zappos staff accept Holacracy redundancy offer

• vosper 11y ago
  The headline is utterly misleading - nowhere in the article is there any evidence that employees hate holacracy and want to return to the old days. The closest they get is citing the people who chose the Zappos redundancy package, but there are many reasons one might take such an offer - especially since the severance package includes at least 3 months of salary.

    If anyone can suggest an accurate, neutral title, we'll change it.

      It's the Guardian's hyperbolic headline, not the submitters, but how about "15% of Zappos staff accept Holacracy-related redundancy offer".

        Even that is only partly what the article is about, but ok.

  > But this month Amazon-owned online shoe retailer Zappos.com, a leading proponent of no-boss, non-hierarchical governance, was rocked by a mass employee defection. Wasn't it zapier.com that hit the news recently?

  Whatever the long-term outcome of the Zappos experiment, I'm glad somebody is doing it.

  This article is just blog spam. Terribly written sensationalism.
