At the Salesforce company kickoff in las Vegas yesterday Mark Benioff joked about ice and bragged about how many people he was hiring but did not acknowledge the stress or the trauma that ice is inflicting on his own employees, let alone the capricious layoffs in professional services that affected people who typically bill hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.
He seemed tone deaf and completely insulated from what it's like for the people who work for him but still had the gall to mention ohana many times. The internal slack channels were on fire with people, many of whom had been laid off without cause.
The public video was edited to omit the remarks in a very awkward and amateurish way.
Salesforce used to be an exception but now it is just yet another billionaire-owned company that only cares about next quarters profit and loss.
