It did not disappoint. The people were passionate, hardworking and deeply caring, both about the work and each other. The hashtag #LoveWhereYouWork, has been featured heavily in posts from laid-off Tweeps (Twitter employees) and stems from the heartbreaking story of London-based employee Lucy Mosley.
I experienced this level of care and thoughtfulness first-hand after the sudden death of a friend. The platform is not perfect, nor is any organisation flawless, but for many of us, it was a very special place to work.
