Bolt has hit a major financial milestone. For the first time since inception, Bolt has achieved profitability. Last month, Bolt’s gross profits hit an all-time high while OPEX reached a record low. Bolt has been doubling down on decisions that emphasize long-term profitability and market share capture. We have been investing heavily in our checkout, payments, and 1-click platform, which allow us to compete with $100b+ incumbents and win deals on a consistent basis. We are winning deals on cost, conversion, and customer support. We’ve also launched over 20 new product lines that have expanded our portfolio of fee capture, increased stickiness with customers, and improved customer satisfaction. We have not been afraid to make the hard strategic decisions on reorganizing our teams. For instance, we have eliminated our Account Management and Implementation Management teams entirely. Now, sales reps manage customer relationships from beginning to end, and their only counterparts are highly technical engineers. No other non-technical middlemen. Our customers say the attention they’ve received is 10x what it has been historically, and the team has never felt more empowered and motivated. These tough decisions have allowed us to cut OPEX considerably while driving record levels of revenue. Our integrations queue is currently filled to the brim. If you process payments digitally and are looking to level up, please reach out. Go Bolt.

@evanbuhler @cgtwts That is why I posted the full-length video today. I believe watching the whole thing captures those nuances you’re referring to. Definitely recommend giving it a watch.
Here is my full Fortune Workplace Summit keynote. It takes only 8 minutes to watch at 2x speed. I believe that people ops is the way to go because it puts customers and employees first, better aligning with business priorities that keep the company moving forward. Bolt would not be standing today if it weren’t for an extremely lean, efficient, business-oriented people operations team. This shift was a crucial one for our business, and I believe many businesses can benefit from making a similar change. youtu.be/_RIrAg91scY?si…
This could be as revolutionary for American business as the invention of the telephone. Seriously, take it nationwide.
JUST IN: Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow fired the company’s entire HR team because they were “creating problems that didn’t exist.”
@redsteeze Made my year Thank you Stephen Rest of my life is playing with house money!
I don't use the term American Hero lightly, but this man might be one of the greatest American Heroes in history.
JUST IN: Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow fired the company’s entire HR team because they were “creating problems that didn’t exist.”
“I had to bring the company back to a very gritty place.” Speaking at #FortuneWorkplaceSummit on Tuesday, Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow shared that he fired nearly all of the company’s leadership team. bit.ly/3Rk2jkS
For some extra color, this took place in a room of the all top Fortune 500 CHRO’s! Before I got on stage, I asked the Fortune team “do you really want me to talk about my HR experience in this room? it may quite challenging for the audience.” They said yes
Bolt CEO after firing the HR team:
JUST IN: Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow fired the company’s entire HR team because they were “creating problems that didn’t exist.”
Life without HR at your company.
JUST IN: Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow fired the company’s entire HR team because they were “creating problems that didn’t exist.”
JUST IN: Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow fired the company’s entire HR team because they were “creating problems that didn’t exist.”
We didn’t have “HR” when building Palantir, for similar reasons - I avoided Ryan’s mistake. And when we needed some PeopleOps, we hired technical leaders. Going into the vast majority of companies and firing most of their HR and Marketing departments would tend to create value!
The HR department exists for one reason: to perpetuate the HR department.
"When you're a peacetime CEO is very different than when you're a wartime CEO." Onstage at the #FortuneWorkplaceSummit, Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow said the company got rid of its HR team as it moved into a “wartime” operating mode: "I feel like a lot of our team was hired more under peacetime, and now we're at wartime," he said onstage. bit.ly/42GBMkk
I didn't realized today was International HR Day.
Today is my birthday! What a great gift, thank you universe 🎁🙏 #1 trending on LinkedIn 3m+ views on Instagram Front page of Google In less than 24 hours. And also... thank you Fortune for the amazing keynote opportunity. Go Bolt ⚡️
