Thread regarding BlackBerry Ltd. layoffs

Dumped jobs to India

Blackberry just fired their entire office in Los Angeles, moved all jobs over to India. Zero machine learning going on here, zero innovation, zero improvements. Chen got bamboozled by Cylance exec team, which hid serious flaws in the product and escaped with a golden parachutes. Paid over 1 billion for Cylance and now its worthless.

Cylance Protect got hacked, its worthless, and despite endless spins and PR, they reduced investment in machine learning and updates, instead of improving it - because the new models in 2020 were awful and they couldn't roll them out. I know, I was there. The data science teams left in 2021 and were never replaced - they cannot afford the AWS costs.
