People will stan a CEO billionaire that is PUBLICLY SHITTING on his own team but then call out employees for responding to that PUBLIC SHITTING in a defensive way. Amazing. If my manager publicly shit on my work on here, you’re god damn right I would yeet my job into space.

Here's how I used to run our weekly team meeting while I was at Uber. I tried to cut down on as many meetings as possible. I found that this meeting: about 45-60 minutes/week was key to everyone being on the same page. And for engineers to be aware of business & product.

A software engineer shared how, for their team meeting, the agenda is just this tweet linked below 😅 (I’m glad it’s inspiring: though anyone thinking of using it, I strongly suggest to tailor it to what the needs or focus of your team are)

Good reminder that corporate Slack accounts can let bosses read *everything* on any given employee slack account. Private messages, locked rooms — it's all visible to them, and in some cases they can and will use it against employees.

My twitter account was protected at the time, so I can only assume this was for not showing 100% loyalty in slack. I’ve heard the same thing has happened to many others now.

I reiterate: fuck you if you support or are neutral towards Musk. This is a WILDLY unsurprising outcome, and your lack of care for his hate speech around trans identity in the past has enabled this.

tierney cyren (parody) (@bitandbang)Tue, 15 Nov 2022 18:39 GMT

every time musk fires a twitter engineer for calling out his bs, the general response is "sad, but you shouldn't call out your boss in public". why? why is it assumed that people in power can say or do whatever tf they want without even being called out for it. serf mentality

Three senior+ software engineers working at Twitter quote tweeted the below, pointing out how it doesn’t make sense. All three fired the same day, one done in public. Criticising your boss in public always has negative consequences, though this response was unusually strong.

Criticizing in private also ended up in pretty much instant firing. So...

For those saying that criticizing should be done in private: I have reports for a number of employees similarly terminated the past 24 hours who were criticizing Musk's tweet on an internal Slack watercooler channel. Some criticized other eng leaders. ~10 people, as I hear.
