Under good management, this could be a good company
The business is doing fairly well, mostly due to brand recognition and lack of true competitors (still not profitable). It seems likely to fade over time.
The management couldn't be worse if they tried. They never gave a clear-cut answer on why they laid off almost exclusively their most tenured employees in April. There was a revolving door of turnover even before that. A lot of issues are masked by Jack's projection of unbridled enthusiasm.
Maybe start treating employees with some of the same respect you claim to have for creators.
