Ah yes, anyone upset that their employer’s layoffs cite financial reasons while objectively wasting money is “shockingly” ignorant to capitalism! Luckily the enlightened fdsg has brought it to our attention!

Without knowing what any of them did, it’s obvious that none of them, nor in aggregate, brought any near the value to Salesforce as did one aging celebrity.

Anecdotally, I’ve never seen anything associating the actor with Salesforce in any capacity. Even those I know at the company didn’t know he advertised for them. (But capitalism!)
