I can’t give more approval for this woman, she handled everything so well.

The backstory is that Cloudflare overhired and wanted to reduce headcount, rightsize, whatever terrible HR wording you choose. Instead of admitting that this was a layoff, which would grant her things like severance and unemployment - they tried to tell her that her performance was lacking.

And for most of us (myself included) we would angrily accept it and trash the company online. Not her, she goes directly against them. It of course doesn’t go anywhere because HR is a bunch of robots with no emotions that just parrot what papa company tells them to, but she still says what all of us wish we did.

(Warning, if you've ever been laid off this is a bit enraging and can bring up some feelings)

Dang that sucks, I always wanted to work there and recently applied eagerly because I haven't seen much controversy from them.

More than half of the Wikipedia article for Cloudflare is made up of a Controversies section

Cloudflare is an absolute awful company and the pinacle of immorality in the tech sphere, well I guess besides Meta, Google, and everyone else.
