That's my reading of their recent post.
Here are their "full context" screenshots:
Do they not see that you're not supposed to talk in that tone to your employees, or anyone for that matter? There's no hint at respect, no "please do this for me" type requests. Just bossing around like an a-hole or like a bad parent you don't want in your life.
I find it strange that this particular engineer has suddenly been given permission to share the chats. Seems planned damage control to me.
Too late. Some things remain bad even when you add context to them.
The verbiage is so freaking weird too. It reeks of toxicity and retaliation for the people who dared speak up.
Yeah, given Andy's message in those very screenshots and how different he is in public compared to those Slack chats, they carefully craft their image on the internet and specifically on reddit.
Indeed. Quoting from the chats: "so go on there with your personal account and coment [sic] to set the record straight".
