Seriously Google. What the hell is wrong with you.

Well, probably better than having them all attend the conference, get everyone hyped up and THEN lay them off.
Seems like another good time to mention the Better Offline podcast, where it’s two eps into a three parter about how shit these companies are. They have a website, just search for it.

Cool Zone Media is outrage porn in podcast form. I think I’m better without anything they produce in my life.
That’s an interesting take. The Women’s War show was especially interesting, I thought. What about that (or other shows) do you consider outrage porn?
I’ll keep your comment in mind and asses whether I think it applies when I listen to a few new eps. I can see it for Better Offline, but not universally across their content.
I may have stated it too strongly, but of the few podcast episodes I’ve listened to it seemed like the organization is leaning into it (because it works well from a business standpoint).
I look for sources of entertainment that don’t lean so hard on outrage as a hook and look to inform myself with media that highlights and encourages solutions and practical actions that can be initiated on an individual level.
From the article …
Though Google didn’t detail headcount, some of the layoffs at Google may have been confirmed in a WARN notice filed on April 24. WARN, or the California Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, requires employers with more than 100 employees to provide 60-day notice in advance of layoffs. In the filing, Google said it was laying off a total of 50 employees across three locations in Sunnyvale.
