If you're going to quit anyway, and not saying this is a good idea, what prevents you literally going and yelling at these idiots demanding answers as to why they are not doing their jobs?
So many people have done this. Watch videos of past Mozilla All Hands meetings. You see the questions asked, you see the leaders dodge, and you see that soon after the askers are gone and leaders say- you have nothing to be afraid of, you don’t need to ask questions anonymously. “Executives” at 1000 person Mozilla are so distant from the workers, and middle managers listen to executives, not staff. It is so sad because Mozilla staff are smart, caring people who love the web, but they are powerless and afraid in the org today.
It seems that to enact a change somebody would have to go public and talk with big journos to bring this dysfunctional stuff to light, much like the recent Bioware scandal.
Thank you for speaking out here! I hope that mozilla employees manage to free themselves from their leadership and change the organization from within. It's possible, even though most employees who could change something have decided to simply leave over the years. Maybe mozilla needs a stark revenue drop to get humble again?
Sure, the organisation is far from perfect, and makes mistakes, but as a current Mozilla employee, I don't recognise this description.
