There are some interesting perspectives for sure in this post. First, we do give equity to all overseas team members: everyone who is a full-time team member at Picket gets equity, regardless of location, though in some locations there is a legally prescribed probationary period. So I appreciate this person calling this out as positive. It is just surprising that it is the only positive they have.
As for over-hiring at the wrong time, and who we chose to retain, every company in 2022 was trying to hire to meet booming demand in real estate. Could the downturn have been predicted? If so, all of the biggest players in the industry should be held to this same standard.
We made mistakes in our hiring ramp, but we do not regret who we retained, including, it must be said, the individual who posted this. As the Head of People, I welcome this person to reach out and discuss their concerns individually.
