That is the part I understood.  They had not been working, so they called it "stealing" from the company - I sort of wish more companies would do this. [/quote]

I watched the whole thing and never heard any performance complaints?  From press I read, they had automated some tasks and instead of re tasking staff they let them go to clawback unvested RSUS before SPAC. [/quote]
It wasn't part of the call.

And didn't really need to be, folks know when they've basically been caught

Ha, if I enjoyed working 2 hours for a while I probably have zero problem with the layoff 😬[/quote]
But the thing is, are those employees truly only working two hours a day? Or was that a CYA post from the CEO after the backlash he received from the video that surfaced from the way he laid 900 people off?  sorry, but that CEO does not strike me as Mr. honesty. I really think that post was just a CYA action by the C EO when he posted that blind item.  Prior to that layoff call there is no mention of employees only working two hours a day.[/quote]

I think CEO was lying. I know someone at the company and they said some very good people were laid off. It seemed like they overhired recently and needed to cut back. Many of the newest folk got let go. [/quote]
