22% Layoff at ClickUp

As a customer of ClickUp, I have very little confidence in their engineering ability. Leader calls for “100x” development, and I think he’s being more honest than most - they may actually *need* to burn it all down to make it better, and now would be the time to initiate that.

ClickUp achieved "AGI" internally.

only 100x? why not go beyond 1000x?

I swear, the tech world is in the state of some global AI psychosis

Always reminds me of:

> Failure is growth. Failure is learning. But sometimes failure is just failure. I think... I'm sorry. I didn't think it would be this hard. But goodbyes are always hard, especially when I am the one saying goodbye. Today, effective immediately, I, Gavin Belson, founder and CEO of Hooli, am forced to officially say goodbye to the entire Nucleus division. All Nucleus personnel will be given proper notice and terminated. But make no mistake. Though they're the ones leaving, it is I who must remain and bear the heavy burden of their failure.

Ah yes, ClickUp, the issue tracker that was so sloppy there wasn't a single person at my company who was upset about our switching to Linear, and which used several gigabytes of RAM on the main page.

Excited to see 100x of this.

> The primary change is that we’re restructuring around what I call 100x org. The goal is 100x output.

what is this? Delusion? Shrooms? Wishful thinking? All of that?

Before reading this post I made a bet that I will find a word “tokens” inside. I won!
