US IT firm's CEO accused of 'worst layoff email', faces backlash

US-based IT company PagerDuty's CEO Jennifer Tejada is facing backlash for her email to employees about laying off 7% of the workforce, with many calling it the "most tone-deaf layoff email". She addressed employees as 'Dutonians', used the word 'refinement' for layoffs and celebrated promotions in the same email. In the end, she quoted Martin Luther King, Jr on leadership.
