What’s cringey about calling out shitty powerful people in public?

I’m with Denise on this one

I think he got what he deserved. He bragged about profits and then fire 13% of your staff, one of whom has stage 4 cancer. That’s sickening.

Dear diary, today LinkedIn was not a boring piece o. s.

Meh. Cringe for who? The guy had it coming.

Conroy's takedowns are a guilty pleasure of mine. She does not give a d@mn and I am here for it. Also, I have waaaay too much of an over-developed sense of propriety to do the same.

Which is probably the reason I ❤ this bowl.

like

@OP, What in that takedown did you find so objectionable?

- that a company's performance is a reflection of a CEO's leadership AKA the buck stops here?

- That Niraj extolled his staff to work harder in his previous memo, all while he was already planning more layoffs, which reads as poor communication to the company?

- That Niraj implied that Wayfair staff who aren't willing to work more hours are lazy?

- That employees on FMLA/disability trying to pay for cancer treatments DO BENEFIT greatly from retaining their healthcare and being laid off?

Yeah OP, you owned yourself here. Team Denise Conroy. The CEO of Wayfair is a garbage human being and deserves all of this, ALL of it

Wow guys, there are jerks everywhere, in every country, in every race, in every class etc.
You are taking one jerk’s behavior and generalizing and condemning an entire populace. Now who’s being the jerk here?

Conroy is kind of hilarious. Let C-Suite folk (former or current) attack each other. The rest of us can't say as much.

Hello fishes,
Does anybody know how much it takes to receive Revised Offer letter from Mindtree ?
I had a discussion with the recruiter on 6th May and he agreed to send the revised offer letter, but I am still awaiting it. The recruiter is not receiving my calls, not replying to my sms and emails as well.
Not sure what to do in this scenario.

There really is such a direct correlation between cringey title and cringey posts.

Before LinkedIn...to me, the king of professional cringey was Shingy. Do you guys remember him? He was aol's overpaid "digital prophet" and got paid to visit companies at lunchtime and babble the same kind of nonsense we now call "LinkedIn cringe".
