Yeah. I figured an obligate contrarian was gonna gotcha me. Sometimes big companies do layoffs.

I stand corrected.

But, then again, the CEO does say: "we are not yet profitable: we’ve taken full advantage of outside capital to speed our growth. That was good stewardship in a time when interest rates were low and venture capital was widely available on good terms. But economic conditions have changed and we believe that it’s no longer prudent to rely on outside capital to support us"

I just don't know what to make of it. It was a healthy company.

> it doesn't seem like it being a startup had any impact

A true mystery.

You're statistically wrong about layoffs. Big companies have had way more layoffs than startups. Pointing that out doesn't make me a contrarian. You can admit that you were wrong instead of digging your heels in.
