      Imagine thinking the issue is some imaginary concept like “the market”, rather than 20 years of poor leadership.

        Monopolies don’t need to create value for the user to keep their leadership

        If the market wasn’t fucked they wouldn’t need to have good leadership, they’d do it or die

          The market is not fucked though. Google is massively profitable and had 11% growth this quarter, which tracks with their 11% increase in revenue YOY

      So the employees can’t be negatively affected by the state of their workplace unless the goddamn market is fucked?

      How dumb can you possibly be?

      You see the problem here is that lives are not disposable. Taking all the risks and making the people suffer the consequences is really shitty. I if they instead focused on steady growth rather than giant leaps, nobody would get laid off. Layoffs are a sign of incompetence from leadership
