Does anyone have any estimate of the number of people impacted (that you know of)? Didn't hear anything from content creation.

I think April 20th, for tradition, would have made more sense.

Would you be able to share more details about this? Our manager was telling us how some long term people (20+ years) have quit within the last month.

How did you hear about this? There have been so many fake posts on here just to stir the pot.
