1. Spotify CEO Daniel Ek surprised at negative impact of laying off 1,500 Spotify employees
  
  Ek said Spotify employees were doing too much "work around the work" as he laid off 17% of the group's workforce in December.

  @nixCraft We tech folk don't generally like doing the "work around the work", that's a thing either organically necessary to the work or imposed by managers who never want to hear the details and just want us to pump out code 24/7.
  You can't just arbitrarily reduce headcount and think that represents any improvement.
