Thread regarding 2U Inc. layoffs

Why the Layoff?

Has anyone ever wondered if one of the reasons they fired people was because of a disability? I know 3 ICs who were fired who had filed for disability at some point, myself included.

As much as this su-ks, restructuring is a part of business. At the end of the day everyone is a free agent and we should at least find solace in that.

One person who was laid off was about to go on maternity leave.

And, in response to the post @ disability, joint discussions with a law firm specifically about that could be insightful.

Why the layoff? Because 2U and edX (the 2U version) turned out a product that was not worth its value to those who bought it.

"Recent reviews of edX on TrustPilot have been scathing. And social media have been brutal on 2U, Trilogy, and EdX. Reddit, for example, has posts like "The dirty truth about edX/Trilogy Boot Camps." In a more recent post about edX, there was a flurry of negative reviews."
