Being the leader in an industry is one of the most difficult places to be at. Maintaining that momentum comes with difficult decisions. If it’s a platform like content creation, the competition is quite severe, which adds more obstacles. Thus, through the course of his career, MrBeast had to let go of many people from his team to skyrocket his brand. But, even after parting ways, Jimmy does not actually leave them high and dry.
In an interview, MrBeast was seen talking about how he fires people. For Jimmy, long-term goals are quite vital. He always likes to think about how he can shape the future of the brand. Thus, the 25-year-old wants people who can adhere to that dream. “At the end of the day, if you hold someone that you don’t see being here in ten years, you are doing them a disservice,” stated MrBeast.
But, even after departing, Jimmy seems to make sure that they land on both feet. According to Donaldson’s statements, he offers them severance pay when he fires them. Later, he also seems to provide a word of recommendation.
That is, apparently, if this particular person who got fired wants to join a new brand, Jimmy helps them in getting that. How? MrBeast DMs the brand through Twitter to give a word of recommendation for the individual seeking new employment.

According to the millionaire content creator, this way of handling firing would make it more of a transition than making it feel like starting from scratch. This aspect is something Donaldson tries to implement every time he fires someone.
