Artesian Builds, following a controversy, has suddenly laid-off 40-50 staff after the CEO self-destructed in the week following the weird-but-benign initial controversy. Sponsor: Lexar 128GB 2000X SD Card https://geni.us/CAA5J on Amazon Artesian Builds was doomed from the start, it seems, because the CEO intended to run the company into the ground as he pursued a Twitch career over prioritizing the core PC building business of the company. Sadly, many talented employees have now been informed they no longer have a job - almost overnight - because of the actions of the CEO. Help support our reporting!
