Was shocked at this article 'Hey guys, thanks for making Monzo a huge success but please leave as we don’t really need your kind of skills anymore"
Monzo come across as total c**** in this article. If this is not what was meant I think your PR department needs a ruler across their knuckles for not conveying the message properly or for putting it out there in the first place!
Are people reading what they want the article to say rather than what it actually says?
Nowhere does it say that staff will be encouraged or forced to leave
Rather if they feel the company has changed on them (e.g. they want to work in an early or small company) or they feel the need to move on then they should not feel trapped in by share options or other binds
It’s not mismanagement, it’s austerity cuts. You could be working under the best manager in the world, but it’s not going to make a fig of difference when their hands are tied because there’s no money.
I don’t want to derail the OP’s thread with an off-the-cuff comment. Teaching is the specific industry I was referring to, and I’d happily talk for days about the pros and cons of our current system/funding/governance/zeitgeist. If you want to we can start a thread in general chat with @shaggy35 but suffice to say I agree that the best manager in the word can only do so much with limited resources, but part of a manager’s job is also to act as a “sh!t umbrella” for those working under them; bad managers prefer instead to act as a “sh!t funnel”, hence my comment regarding time off for stress.
