replyIt's pretty clear they were making a joke.
replyIt's both hilarious and telling that his jest was close enough to reality to provoke you into taking it so seriously.
replyI love how "1468 sales" was the outrageous part, not "1 developer, 10 managers, 20 C-suite" which came before it.
replyThat just added up to 1500, so maybe the "+" is another manager. No need to be so hasty.
replyTo be fair Postman is a lot more than just a fancy curl client. It's a whole saas platform now.
reply> It's a whole saas platform now.
replyI think the argument may be that it doesn't justify this - that the main benefit of the SaaS platform has been to provide 1500+ people with something to do - and that perhaps the SaaS platform doesn't really add enough value to justify its existence or the company's valuation.
I don't really have a point of view on this since I've only used the browser extension (though I don't have it installed at present, thankfully) so the SaaS part of the business might be amazingly useful or it might not: I'm just laying out what I infer the argument in this sub-thread to be.
To be fair, is there a good reason that it should be?
replycan it send email yet?
replyWait till you hear Docusign has 7k employees...
