Nosh O'Time
CEO at Notion


Nosh sent the following email to Notion employees earlier today. Dear `Time-Knights` of Notion, I regret to inform you that, due to some difficult decisions, we are laying off 15% of our employees. My colleagues and I have been discussing this issue for quite some time, and while it is a difficult decision to make, it is necessary for the company's growth.
These layoffs are actually because of me wanting to spend more time for myself - time for naps, for finding new hobbies, for just taking a break every now and then.
I know it's hard to believe, but these layoffs are actually because of me wanting to spend more time for myself - time for naps, for finding new hobbies, for just taking a break every now and then. And I realize that this isn't something I can do overnight, so to make it happen, I had to make tough decisions that cost us valuable resources. Please understand that this isn't something I wanted to do, but it was necessary for me to have some ``me time.`` I'd also like to take this opportunity to address the rumors that have been circulating, blaming me for all of this. To those of you who think that is true, I'm sorry to say you are wrong. It is not my fault, and I'm determined to make things right. I'm sorry for the difficult circumstances, but I want you to know that I'm here to support you every step of the way. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, Nosh O'Time, CEO of Notion
