There is no excuse. One way or the other it's really bad management. You may not realize it but 7% is a massive piece of the pie. Why did you hire those people Gitlab in the first place?

The macroeconomic environment isn't tough, my equity stock and shares could have been better but are doing just fine. And if it were tough, it would justify layoffs of 1%, not 7%. Covid, the Russian war and energy crisis have been going on for years now but they didn't stop you from hiring Gitlab. Your irresponsible hiring patterns show mediocrity, corporate chaos.

Exploiting the situation to rollback hiring mistakes is not justified. Nor experimenting with peoples' lives.

I mean Sid Sijbrandij has been a horrible CEO for Gitlab. Has squandered every meaningful lead the company had. If he was sharp and a good leader, they wouldn't be in this boat.
