Spence will receive a cash severance of $1,875,000, per SEC filings. He will also get $7,500 per month and serve as a Sonos board advisor until June, and his unvested shares will vest.
If I was this bad at my job, I’d be shitcanned with no compensation. It’s pretty cool how we reward failure at the highest levels.
The Peter Principle in practice. A Quibi exec is taking over for him, I shit you not.
Quibi?! The streaming company whose business plan was so bad it lasted like 6 months. That sure inspires confidence.
Said another way, the company that broke production just hired the guy who ran the backend of Pandora Radio for 10 years and not once did he make headlines for an outage.
I feel like they couldn’t make things much worse apart from just making the app say, “Lol, fuck you,” every time you tried to do anything.
It’s so bad, I’ve mulled just trashing the one speaker I have that I didn’t even pay for, just to move to something better.
I just grabbed the old app from The Aurora store and told my speakers not to update their firmware.
I’m using my kitchen S5 exclusively in aux mode with a spare phone which runs the Malopieds fork of Innertune. It’s the perfect music kiosk / jukebox and I never have to touch their apps (unless I change up my network).
Most of what I use the speakers for (other than surround on the TV) is automatically starting lullabies from Navidrome for my kids at bedtime.
The new app broke the hell out of that whole chain.
Now I’m extra mad because their new app is messing with sleepy time for the bebis 😠
fuck those guys. Glad you gave a workaround in place.
Y’all are the best. Will have to try these ideas later
