Could it be that he got fired from Facebook for the same reason as well? For founders, this seems like an easy way to guard themselves against dilution. Nobody is perfect. Be it life or work, we all do mistakes. It is easy to disillusion ourselves or justify ourselves, that others were right. In this occasion, it is probably easy for Noah to relate to few things that didn't go well and assume them as reasons for getting fired. If Mark Zuckerberg used this tactic so that he could have more value for his stocks at the end of the day, then it is quite a disgusting one. I have great respect for Mark. I hope it is not true. If so many people were fired, then clearly there was a problem with hiring the right people. |

I think the most important property of a good leader is behave like an umbrella. Guard the shit and magnify the happiness. If someone takes the stance of firing employees to justify dilution then, in my not so humble opinion, they dont deserve to lead.
>Nobody is perfect. Be it life or work, we all do mistakes.
And be man enough to own up, learn from the mistake and don't repeat it again.
>If Mark Zuckerberg used this tactic so that he could have more value for his stocks at the end of the day, then it is quite a disgusting one. I have great respect for Mark. I hope it is not true.
"I'm a CEO, bitch". Does that sound familiar? The whole of Facebook works with the preamble of "Mark is always right". That sounds more like a dictator than a founder. And a dictator is only interested in his own interests.
>If so many people were fired, then clearly there was a problem with hiring the right people.
Or, the founder just wanted to get work by paying less. Ideally these people should have been hired as contractors. But the founder decided to create an illusion of a long term commitment to compromise on the Cost to the Company.
Disclaimer: I had worked for Facebook, got fed up with the idiocy and resigned after 3 months.
