Grindr has lost about 45% of its staff as it enforces a strict return-to-office policy that was introduced after a majority of employees announced a plan to unionize.
About 80 of the 178 employees at the LGBTQ+ dating app company resigned after the company in August mandated that workers return to work in person two days a week at assigned “hub” offices or be fired, the Communications Workers of America said in a statement Wednesday.
love seeing companies going full mask off now — not even trying to sell the ‘collaborative environment’ bile, it’s purely punitive
how did we get to the point where a gay hookup app is doing evil corporate schemes and attrition
I’ll give you a hint, the first three letters of the answer are MBA.
My Butt Aches?
Because once the firm is big enough where the decision-maker doesn’t personally know the people they’re laying off, it almost immediately turns into this. The severance pay and unemployment of 80 software developers is millions of dollars, enough for even people who are normal and nice to the people they know to look the other way and say it was for the good of the company.
How did we get to a point where people online claim a company is evil?
How did we get to a point where people started becoming anti-employee corporate apologists?
It’s cool tho. they let us know we should block them now cuz with a take that bad there’s no chance they’ll ever have a comment worthy of our sight
But they mod a joe Rogan subreddit! What if I miss out?
How do I pay extra to miss out?!
I usually preach that there are no stupid questions, but you just proved me wrong.
“online”? People have been calling, and rightfully so, many companies for a very long time.
Let me guess- corporations are people.
That was never a thing.

If you read it. It isn’t saying corporations/business are people. It is saying they are owned by people and people have rights that cannot be violated.
People have rights and a business inherits the rights of the people who work within and own it. Just think about what it would mean otherwise. A bank or hospital holds countless private information of anyone who uses them. Any business does, as they all hold private information of clients and employees. That information by extension has a right to certain things like privacy. The government or others cannot just force their way in when they want to get information they want.
That isn’t because businesses are people. Its because businesses are created and owned by people. That’s all that law is saying and it gets twisted every time.
“Corporations are people, my friend.”
