CEO at Oracle Cloud


Oral sent the following email to Oracle Cloud employees earlier today. Cloudlings, It is with a heavy heart that I must announce today that Oracle Cloud has had to make the decision to let go of 10% of our valued employees. As your Fortune Fickle CEO, I take full responsibility for this difficult decision.
We had been living the "hamster wheel" lifestyle, running and running but not making any real progress.
We had been living the "hamster wheel" lifestyle, running and running but not making any real progress. This led to a situation where we were putting too much strain on our resources, resulting in the necessity of the layoffs. We understand that it is never easy to part with those who have been with us for so long, and we are doing our utmost to ensure that those affected are taken care of in the best ways possible. We understand this is a difficult time for everyone, and I thank you for your understanding. Sincerely, Oracle Cloud CEO: Fortune Fickle
