    I don’t know about that. He took like four months off for cancer treatment. And he’s going to need to take more off for more treatment. Not sure how you can hide that from your employer.

      3 months. End of October to start of February. It shouldn’t matter though. How long should he have worked there before he’s allowed to? Like if he was CPO for five years and then got cancer, would that have been OK? At what point does it become not ok?

      Also he’s got history there and this promotion was due to that. I think they just expected from him to take the reigns on some stuff and then wasn’t there because of the cancer treatment which is 100% understandable. Mozilla isn’t going to collapse in 3 months.

      On the day Teixeira returned to his job, it’s claimed, he was instructed to lead a company-wide layoff of 50 people, 40 of whom were in his MozProd organization.

      That’s just shit management from above. That is pure retaliation.

          After you spend down your allotted PTO, yes.

          Mildly surprised that someone in a position at that level wouldn’t have at minimum short term disability coverage, at least as an option. It’s hardly expensive.
