Reply to comment by KikisGamingService in Twilio to lay off about 1,500 employees, or 17% of its workforce by ChocolateTsar

How are you guys internally viewing one BU being headed by your old CFO (trad focused on “efficiency”) and the other by a Rev leader (trad focused on growth)?

Thanks for the AMA. I hope you and your colleagues take the time needed to recover from this shitty situation that prob had little to do with the great work you do day to day.

As far as we can tell, the data and communications units are being split and they still share many departments. Twilio for a while now has kept pushing towards "becoming profitable", so this is kind of expected. Sadly, I am not high enough on the ladder to know too much about the details.
