Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Stay strong, fellow corpo-rats. And thank you for making these posts, Wizard.

Not sure how much longer these 14 hour days are sustainable. Private equity owners are panicking. They’ve spent years turning a solid profitable operation into a hollow shell of losses and talent exodus.

And now that the markets have turned, an IPO will be undervalued and nobody has the cash for a private buyout.

I think I’m going to do a month of backpacking around Japan if it all ends up going under.
