From the new edition of my Command Line newsletter that just hit inboxes for paid subscribers:
Exemplifying the madness is what happened to VP Chris Riedy, the company’s most senior face left for the advertiser community. I’m told he was initially on the laid off list — Musk apparently thinks there are still too many managers in sales — and had his access to internal systems shut off, and then somehow convinced Musk not to give him the boot. It’s unclear what exactly he’s doing now, and his reports managing sales for key markets are reporting to Musk directly.
Also, I have more details on Amazon’s brewing work from home battle and Meta’s big all hands from earlier this week.
