    Most of these execs actually believed that covid demand would become permanent. What they did was incredibly stupid and irresponsible, and now workers are paying for it

    Most of these people are total followers. They just do whatever Google does because thats what dipshit investors want. There was no reason for my company to overhire to the degree it did, we were already able to meet demand… hiring people doesn’t magically increase your capacity to service more users. So fucking stupid. If I can help it I’ll never work for an idiotic public company again.
