_w4wc··on Coinbase employees petition to remove execs
Someone said:

A generally apathetic and sometimes condescending attitude from the CPO, COO, and Chief People Officer

Which you replied to with a very apathetic and condescending:

Second, if you have no confidence in the execs or CEO of a company then why are you working at that company? Quit and find a company to work at that you believe in!

This is a very amateurish response, and honestly I'm expecting better from some exec of a publicly traded company. You should have used this as an opportunity to make your employees believe they made the right choice, share how Coinbase is always (supposed to be) looking for new ways to improve, and how there are more appropriate channels for this kind of feedback.

Instead you let your ego get in the way, shared some childish tweets (that you'll probably regret soon), and alienated the majority of your employees.
