Is this Animal Farm double speak?

Just genuinely curious, is there a reason why Salesforce is getting a lot of flack for the layoffs when a bunch of other tech companies are going through layoffs as well? Like some people have said avoid joining SF right now, but what if you’re hopping from another big tech company that’s also going through layoffs..

When I worked at Salesforce I hated the family BS.

The days of singing Ohana, promoting crazy cartoon characters and free spending are over. SF is going to be run like any other large enterprise company and Marc probably will be a figure head at best.

My boss fired me because i ask for clarification on my employment right.

I got hired not long ago. I realise some of the employee benefits i was told (missing in the contract) contradict with what’s stated on the law. So i email the boss about it and ask for clarification. Immediately after the email i was fired.

Just want to make sure people know this and don’t apply jobs in this shady company- it is called UniQ Biotech, in Delta, BC, Canada

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?
