Seems like a good note to have printed out and hand in during a meeting. I like to handle this stuff face to face. Employee turnover is q sign of internal troubles-- exiting empoyees should be a great way to learn what your existing employees won't tell you. Take that opportunity.
So what's actually the problem here? I'd be pretty upset if someone would would leave out of the blue in two weeks without opening up for a graceful phase-out. (Not that it's technically possible in Sweden, usually there's at least a month lead time but I gather that it's different in the states where you can be fired instantly). Sure it depends on what you actually do, how replaceable you are, if you are working on some core issues and how big the company is.
You may be right that Jason has a right to be upset. But the way he reacted was extremely unprofessional. Telling Evan never to come back to the office, nor to email his colleagues, is pretty ridiculous.
nothing new here...
awww, I thought we were done with Techcrunch articles rehashing old topics on the front page all the time ...
Deep honesty from Jason there, acknowledging that Mahalo is a dying company. Didn't know they had burned through 4,367 employees already though.
