US-based CEO fires 99 of 111 employees over Slack message, reason will leave you shocked

Of the company’s 111 employees, 99 employees were fired after failing to attend a meeting. The US-based CEO angrily posted a message on Slack informing employees that they had been fired after failing to show up for the meeting. An intern who recently joined the company took to Reddit to share the screenshot of the CEO’s angry Slack message, in which he retained only 11 employees who were present at the meeting.

The Slack message shows the CEO introducing himself as Baldvin and then berating his staff for not taking their work seriously. “For those of you who didn’t show up for the meeting this morning, consider this your official notice, now you’re all dismissed. You did not do what you agreed to do, you did not fulfill your part of your contract and you did not show up for the meeting you were supposed to attend and work for,” read the message.

Furthermore, the CEO informed employees that he would terminate all agreements. “I cancel all agreements between us. Please return everything you have, log out of all accounts, and remove yourself from this Slack immediately.” He also chided employees for not taking his opportunities lightly. ‘I have given you the opportunity to improve your life, work hard and grow. Yet you have shown me that you are not taking this seriously….”

The Reddit post did not go down well with users as they spammed the comments section with harsh responses. “I assume the CEO failed to inform the team about that meeting. I can’t believe 99 people won’t attend a meeting if they are notified,” said one user. “The company’s infrastructure will be a smoking ruin, and Baldvin will be too proud (or too broke) to find out what happened,” another user wrote. “The company is probably deep in debt,” another user added.
