View Cloudflare Employee records meeting where HR tries to fire her on Odysee

I can’t give more approval for this woman, she handled everything so well.

The backstory is that Cloudflare overhired and wanted to reduce headcount, rightsize, whatever terrible HR wording you choose. Instead of admitting that this was a layoff, which would grant her things like severance and unemployment - they tried to tell her that her performance was lacking.

And for most of us (myself included) we would angrily accept it and trash the company online. Not her, she goes directly against them. It of course doesn’t go anywhere because HR is a bunch of robots with no emotions that just parrot what papa company tells them to, but she still says what all of us wish we did.

(Warning, if you’ve ever been laid off this is a bit enraging and can bring up some feelings)

      So it’s been a week. Cloudflare isn’t in the news anymore. No one on this site is talking about the incident anymore. Brittany Pietsch has done nothing but complain and “hit back” at the comments 4 days ago. And the stock price has gone up.

      I don’t expect you to acknowledge any of this, but knowing that I was completely 100% right is reward enough.

          I saw it just fine. Nothing will change in the next 3 months. I look forward to being completely 100% right yet again.

            Looks like something changed so let’s review. The conditions were that this would have no impact on Cloudflare or Brittany. Apart from Cloudflare looking like dicks in the most public and embarrassing way imaginable, Brittany’s landed a nice new job most likely thanks to all the visibility she generated. I would imagine she was offered a ton of jobs the minute she went viral and is only now officially able to announce the one she picked. Well done her. You mentioned being used to being 100% right so you must know the feeling well. I have to say, I see why you like it so much cos I’m certainly enjoying this ;)
