    You may remember this thread from the lounge: New way of firing employees[^] Seems he followed it up by calling the laid-off "lazy" and "thieves", which is nice. Then he apologized for the way he did it, which probably makes it all right with the jobless 900. Except ... CEO who fired 900 staff on Zoom sparks mass resignation of three execs - with more expected[^] I wouldn't call "three" a "mass", but that's journalism for you. I can agree with the departees - I wouldn't want to be involved with him either.

          The guy sounds like a real ass. I'm betting many more jump ship.

          If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

              Garg has done this at least once before, so no one should accept his "apology". I hope every single senior executive leaves his company.

                This guy appears to have shot himself in the foot. Good luck with the SPAC funding.

                  I can see him "leaving for new opportunities" sometime in the near future. Anyone can manage a company when everything is perfect; handling problems is the true measure of a good manager.

                    A lot of CEOs are high functioning psychopaths. Sounds like he's one.

                      We're talking about the company leadership, three (in a day, from the looks of it) is a big number.

                      Cheers, Vikram.
