According to The Paper, on June 11, Alibaba announced a management restructuring at DingTalk, with former Bitcoin mining company SAITECH board member Chen Yusen taking over as CEO of DingTalk, replacing the former CEO Chen Hang. Previously, SAITECH had appointed Chen Yusen as a board member in December 2021 and officially stepped down on August 13, 2024. This adjustment occurred after an internal management controversy was sparked by a long post titled "Inside Ding" by a departing DingTalk employee. On June 10, Alibaba’s Partner Committee posted on the internal network criticizing some management practices of the DingTalk team as "not representative of Alibaba’s culture."

What is Alibaba trying to do? Putting people with backgrounds in mining companies in charge of DingTalk—this collision of Web3 and SaaS is quite interesting.

Chen Yusen's resume spans quite a range, jumping from Bitcoin mining to enterprise management software. Alibaba's talent selection is becoming more and more daring.

It's not the kind of culture that Alibaba should have—those words are quite heavy, indicating internal conflicts and longstanding resentment.

The article "Inside the Nail" was quite impactful; it directly led to a change of leadership.
