   CrowdStrike laying off their highest performance and most talented employees so the CEO can take a $40m bonus.

     @GossiTheDog Imagine taking that big of a bonus after single handedly causing billions in damages over a single day due to gross negligence.

     But sure, fire the people saddled with fixing the incompetence. Let's see how that goes.

     @da_667 @GossiTheDog This isn't even the first time this CEO has fucked his people.

     "CEO George Kurtz said the decision to cut about 500 jobs was driven by internal efficiency gains from AI and multibillion-dollar opportunities in new market segments."

     "...internal efficiency gains from AI"

     Fuck that guy right into a hole and keep on fucking him.

     @NosirrahSec @da_667 “internal efficiency gains from AI” is transparently nonsense, given the layoffs include people in IR and such which have nothing to do AI, but actual human experts.

     @GossiTheDog @NosirrahSec I can't fathom anyone replacing seasoned DFIR staff with a fucking AI. Even with force multiplier gains, it needs to be babysat consistently.
