Tbf 99% of other companies are still doing that, just not in the open.

It's a business, their goal is to make money. I kind of like that they're willing to let everyone see into the nitty gritty details of how they do that.

It's tone deaf and borderline anti-social. To see more about what can go wrong with "open company" practices, look at the Gittip/GratiPay saga. https://geekfeminism.fandom.com/wiki/Gittip_crisis
