Google employees questioned leadership about cost cuts, layoffs and “morale” issues following the company’s better-than-expected first-quarter earnings report.
Anticorp, We’re making more money than ever before! Executive bonuses are huge! Oh, btw, you’re all fired. Security will escort you while you clear your work station. Go team!
cyberpunk007, Well that is their motto after all. “be evil”.
Anticorp, Do no harm*
*^(to the bottom line)
frunch, Is being a sociopath a prerequisite for being the head of a massively successful tech company?
FenrirIII, 
Yes.
beanson, I need to add extra emphasis and repeat this. Yes it is.
InternetCitizen2, Yes
PyroNeurosis, No, in much the same way being human is required to operate a jigsaw. It’s just assumed that’s what happens.
Anticorp, Yes
maynarkh, Pichai then joked that leadership should hold a “Finance 101” Ted Talk for employees.
Idiot.
Sanctus, 
The employees should host a Social Contract 101 Ted Talk for Pichai and his ilk. They’ve never experienced the way workers used to negotiate.
Veraxus, No, Pichai is no idiot. It’s worse than that. He’s overtly and flamboyantly evil.
homesweethomeMrL, Google is using artificial intelligence to summarize employee comments and questions for the forum.
JFC
some_guy, I don’t know how you can better disrespect them than this.
Anticorp, If there’s a way, they’ll find it.
paraphrand, What a great way to neuter sharp and exacting questions.
