My sister was one of the super early employees as well, I think under 30. She's given me a very similar picture. Seemed like a lot of young people were hired who way over purchase on terrible merchandise that just didn't sell. Jason also seemed to be a terrible CEO and run the company into the ground.

I really don't consider Jason a bad CEO. He was incentivized heavily to go big along with everyone else. He made a plan to get there, a plan I actually think was the best route to try and get to $10B. It just didn't work, doesn't mean it still wasn't the best plan.
