Thread regarding SAS Institute layoffs

Severance "documentary" series...

I’m starting to think Ben Stiller and Dan Erickson took a deep dive into SAS while creating Severance. Just saying—the phrase "Expressions of Joy" feels like it could be straight out of the show. IYKYK.

I bet a lot of people have stumbled across other Severance like moments.

Weird. The SAS org chart current and past says differently.

I’ll go with the org chart.

Correct. That is what my statement says.

I’ll go along, to an extent, with the concept of an “inner” and “outer” self. While working at SAS, I had one self where I could speak freely, and another where, if I gave my opinion, bad things happened.

I can see how a corporation would want people with two selves. My SAS career would certainly have gone better if I had kept quieter 😂.

@a5+1jpajw2fq Are you seriously implying there aren’t women in leadership at SAS?
