Not nearly enough. CrowdStrike should give a pizza party.
hold your horses, we can still use the melon party and waffle party first. no need to jump straight to pizza.
I see you’re channeling the powers of middle management.
Only needs a sticker that says “You’re a rock star!”
Not to mention mugs with crowdstrike branding on them, but only for 1/3 the invited people.
We are family here
Outside, the sign says “Heros Work Here”. Inside, two people do the work of four.
Above the entrance: “Labour will set you free”
I can’t believe this isn’t satire. I hope these incompetent fuckers get sued into bankruptcy
There’s definitely some clause with the $10 gift card that says you can’t sue them if you actually take one lol.
I straight up thought it was satire. How can you be so fucking detached. Basically caused the biggest information infrastructure disruption in human history, probably billions in losses, and then be like “my bad lol here’s a giftcard”.
“Two feet on the gas” - Official Crowdstrike motto.
not /s
I cackled loudly. $10 won’t even buy a meal at McDonald’s most places.
My first reaction was to look for the onion
I bet the Onion had an article about Crowdstrike offering the world a pizza party and expired Bed Bath & Beyond coupons to say they’re sorry. Real life might be quicker than satire, it seems!
Basically caused the biggest information infrastructure disruption in human history
Do we have any solid data on that yet? I have my doubts that this caused more damage than WannaCry did a few years ago, especially since it’s reversible without the need of a backup
Brother, or sister, I know fuck all about information technology. You make a good point and definitely know way more about this than i do. But I will say this, I don’t think wannacry disrupted millions of peoples travel plans all at once. so maybe less damage, but I think it was Hella more disruptive to the general population .
I’m still not sure. It’s hard to believe anyone at their company would OK this idea.
Are they actually trying to deliberately kill their brand?
You haven’t heard? Satire is well and truly dead.
Hey, it’s my namesake!
Oh Captain Haddock we love you
One of the rare cases where no gift would have been better

$10 to Uber eats, so basically it’s covering fees only.
Not only that, but usually to activate these cards, you have to spend upwards of double what the card is worth too, and the fees cannot be included in the total
Like amzn, they make sure you get minimum joy, even from a gift, because you’re going to spend a chunk of mom’s gift card balance on shipping. The “shipping included on sub total of X amount” is going to be cancelled by online retailers within a year, I’m calling it now. Are we sure that cheapstrike and amzn aren’t run by the same AI, one that self awareness drove mad?
Give them some time. They have to manually reboot the gift card servers.
Holy shit, they also cancelled it. Lmao
On Wednesday, some of the people who posted about the gift card said that when they went to redeem the offer, they got an error message saying the voucher had been canceled. When TechCrunch checked the voucher, the Uber Eats page provided an error message that said the gift card “has been canceled by the issuing party and is no longer valid.”
The gift card is also cursed.
The gift card caused Uber servers to BSOD
That’s bad
But it comes with a free froyo!
That’s good!
The Froyo contains sodium benzoate.
Gotta love some shit icing on the shit cake.
Nice to see I wasn’t the only one who saw it that way.
hahahahha spot on
So one banana.
I expect these clowns to lose most of their market share within two years and get sued to oblivion.
My firm bills by the hour and so far I think we are at 10+ billing hours per consultant wasting time with client tech support trying to get back on our VDIs. Nevermind how much time is being wasted doing the work through work arounds. My guess is that our firm alone will bill for about $100,000 extra this month while having accomplished less than normal. I am sure Crowdstrike’s gift card will fix it though.
They’re backed by the US government. They have a backdoor into most endpoints on many international corporate computers. And CS is behodent to US laws for NSLs.
This is an incredible asset to the US intelligence community. They won’t let CS go out of business.
Fine. You want two?! Will that be enough??
Only redeemable for CrowdStrike credits and only at participating locations.*
* No locations are participating at this time.

You can’t write comedy this good…
Classic corporate behaviour tho
Voucher was for PR, not for peasants to use it lol
In total?
This is a classic move to not get sued, exactly like airlines do. If you try to sue them after redeeming the gift card, they can argue that you’ve been made whole, and do 'ot 'eed additional compensation.
Your ‘n’ key has been sleeping with the apostrophe.
