Would it be possible to expound on this comment with a decent source (first party is totally okay!)?

I ask not as a personal attack on your credibility, this comment just seems a bit inconsistent with the Holacracy movement that he championed a couple of years back.

I agree that this is inconcsistent with the Holacracy movement (even if the move preceded the movement officially, clearly these workers were never fully Zappos employees in Tony's eyes, which is sad).

Thanks for sharing, and I agree that it is always sad to see upper management marginalize the contributions of certain groups of employees.
