> I was still caught a bit off guard. What about that high-priority project I was helping to lead? What about the training I was scheduled to deliver? What about the offsite next month?

This is the part that always confuses me. I understand why they treat employees as disposable, but it's like they don't care about continuation of business either.

I feel like everytime I've quit a job, I cared more about my succession plan than my employer just because I have professional standards I set for myself. It makes no sense to me.

Social systems like “a company” are surprisingly adaptive. Did your company fall over? Will Auth0 fall over? Very likely no.

There’s almost no single person, project, process, or piece of knowledge that is truly existential to a moderate sized organization.

Everyone is replaceable, even the CEO. Some plates will drop, the people left pick up the pieces and keep going.
