Rahmat Wibowo, protesting that he was 'said not to work', confirmed it with his own screenshots: what he lists as achievements 'on the first day' (topping an AI tool's usage leaderboard, a chat group with the co-CEO, 'many initiatives' and 50+ referrals) happened mostly before his 1 April start date, when he wrote that he could not work on anything and was planning a YouTube channel because he did not know what to do; the co-CEO set his proposal aside for other priorities, and none of the screenshots shows any work delivered after he started. Posting the company's internal Slack messages, he also did what his manager had asked him not to: disclose internal details.

(meta.ai, they say I didn't work, yet on my first day alone I already:
1. was Top Contributor AI; 2. had a group with the CEO directly from
Australia; 3. had many initiatives for other departments, even 50+
referrals for HR. I just want to be the employee with the highest ROI.)
[Attached: Slack screenshots, with his own captions such as "Manager saya"
and "Co-CEO dari Australia". In date order:]
[Undated] Rahmat Wibowo: Hi Shaz, I'm Rahmat your new DevOps working under
@Jigz. I will join officially by April 1st. But, already have the account
setup. Look forward to contributing to the company. If you have any input
for me to contribute. Feel free to give me indeas and input …
Shahrooz Chowdhury: Welcome!!!
Rahmat Wibowo: Will do
[17 March] (co-CEO): Hey thanks Rahmat absolutely, we have so much to do.
What we're really doing right now is we're just doing the bare minimum but
as you say with DevOps so much of this can be picked up with monitoring and
the right systems in place. This is a great opportunity for you to work
with Jignesh and the team and to start putting that on the roadmap as well
because right now an alerting is really very basic
Rahmat Wibowo: btw im not able to work on anything on prod only see things
since my join date is april 1st
(reply): Ah nice, that's fine. We have a lot of planning to do before we
can start focusing on the execution
[17 March] Neet: will check into thsi
Rahmat Wibowo: Hi neet, sorry to bother you Since I dont know what to do
until april 1st. I'm planning to create a youtube channel about tech. Can
it comply with the company policy? should i put company on linkedin as
undisclosed to make sure my channel branding didn't affect our company
name? or should I abandon the idea completely
[18 March] (manager): And I want to focus on security side of things too
and aim for compliance certificates
Rahmat Wibowo: so basically will create the cdk using aws cdk agent skills
and then create a pr, review it, when the pipeline start it will monitor
the pipeline, also the dev using read only roles, so the apply only being
processed on the pipeline as guard rails … really interesting we can make
the dev ops ai agents haha
(manager): we will need to focus on soc type 1 and type 2 to begin with
Rahmat Wibowo: sure, i'm happy that my skills and experience can benefit
the company and i can continue to grow and explore things to level up
[18 March] (manager): Hi @rahmat.wibowo, I don't have any issues with this
as long as no company resources or internal details are disclosed. You may
not have access yet, but please ensure that role names, account IDs, or
any company-related resource names and information are not shared. But
I'll let @Neet reply to this as well.
[24 March] (co-CEO): love the proactivity, that should be on the roadmap
and could be something you champion and lead one day. Right now we have
other order of importance initiatives that mature our incident response
capability before we need to look at chaos engineering as the next cab off
the rank.
[2 April] Rahmat Wibowo: I can make a demo and teach how it works, and
onboard to use agents skills and compound engineering. I love to write
medium post and teach on youtube channel: you can find me on:
