The 1-2 layoffs rto makes me supremely skeptical. It makes the layoffs look less like a business decision & more like conditioning for various abuse, such as aggressive RTO.

Wow, for a company who&#x27;s mission is to enable transportation from point A to B across the globe this is pretty nuts. So the employees are supposed to work from a physical location in SF to SSH into us-east-1 machine &amp; debug something that went wrong on trip in Boseman, MT?<p>This whole boomer management level cannot handle that FOSS projects, outsourcing, freelancing &amp; initial stages of entrepreneurship happens from anywhere apart from a physical office location.....

How long before he flips? You&#x27;d have to pay me $300k min to move back to the Bay Area

it&#x27;s already over for this company -- they held on way too long. all this thrashing is just embarrassing.<p>maybe Ford or GM or another big player might want them? Tesla?<p>if not, try and get a few pennies on the dollar from Uber.
