![]() ![]() Jane was suffering from some form of duress that caused her to publicly berate her CEO and company? What if this public cry for help is the result of a mental instability? What if the open letter was an act of bereavement? On the other hand, maybe there is another viewpoint. No sane CEO or competent company would do otherwise. Stoppelman and his team acted correctly to deftly issue the termination of Ms. Jane was terminated quicker than it takes to watch Braveheart. If Yelp took too long to deal with the situation, employees might become distracted about the distraction itself.īut in this situation, Ms. Jane be sacked? Would she be allowed to stay? How come the company hasn't said anything yet? Not only would they be talking about her, they would be wondering aloud what the company would do about the situation. Everyone (and I mean everyone) would be talking about Ms. Imagine the rancor inside of Yelp once word spread of the open letter. (And you know that happens every year, too.) Comeuppance by a CEO-like in this case-would be easier than expertly predicting human trampling at this year's Black Friday shopping extravaganza. Jane's petulance, insecurity, willfully perverse and "head in the sand" level of expectations is as comical as it is stupid.

I know they’re not worth your time - did you know that the average American earns enough money that the time they would spend picking up a penny costs more than the penny’s worth?

Jane ends her epic 2,392 word rant with the following:Īnyway, those are my thoughts. "Because like the bitter remorse of accepting a job that can’t pay a living wage." "Maybe instead, you can help set up something to allow Eat24/Yelp employees to get food from local food banks and soup kitchens?" "Instead of telling you about all the ways I’m withering away from putting my all into a company that doesn’t have my back." ![]() Interspersed throughout the letter is a condescending tone replete with a smug, accusatory naïveté. Other fits of discontent included, "I’m still being trained for the same position I’ve got?" and "Will you pay my phone bill for me?" and "Should I sell my car?" "I haven’t bought groceries since I started this job," she said. She continued to lament about life in her open letter to Mr. In my experience, a new hire must demonstrate commitment and competence before moving to a different role in the organization.
