    12000 employees. A significant percentage of them probably working remotely. How else are you supposed to lay them off if not by email?

    I don't know how I would reword it, but the current headline gave me the impression that Rippling had money deposits stuck in the bank and hence couldn't pay people on time.

    In what way does Indians emigrating to Canada help India? All the Indians migrating and working in Canada are helping Canada only no? Sure, some of them might be remitting some money back to family in India, but that would be a pittance in
