Twilio is firing 17% of workforce

My free PR advice to companies announcing layoffs is to cut short on the cute company employee nicknames, keep the 'Twilions', 'stripes' and 'Zoomies' to the good times.

I love PR observations like this -- another one is to reconsider using the company blog template for such postings. This one isn't bad (though it does have prominent share buttons included), but I think it was Zoom that had a giant, cheerful "Don't forget to share!" at the bottom of theirs last week.
