Depends what is your situation in the company and the project you are working for. If the project has no revenue this could be indeed a problem.

Many companies have stopped hiring or on hiring freeze. Including Intel where I work. I heard about one company who laid off.
Layoffs will happen during 2022. This is market adjustment after 2 years of craziness.

Hi Everyone,
I was unfortunately impacted directly due to the recent layoffs. I am a Backend Developer(Nodejs) with a little over 1 year experience with DLTLabs. It was a good journey where I grew professionally.
Though it is a difficult time for me but I am excited for the new opportunities and experiences that lays ahead .
I am open to new job role of Backend/Node.js/Javascript developer. I would appreciate it if you can forward any openings or opportunity that aligns with my experience.

Any stories of people getting admitted to the NY bar despite getting fired from their first legal job? For context I was fired from my first big law job during Covid-April last year, due to performance issues and failure to meet billables. They’ve remained somewhat neutral on my employment affidavit by leaving the box regarding satisfactory performance blank and indicating it’s firm policy to only verify dates of employment. Am rather nervous! Thoughts? Has anyone gone through this? How?

I got laid off from my job as an account manager at a SAAS company. I’ve been applying non stop for similar jobs in saas for the past 2 months and I’m not having a lot of success with interviews. Either not getting them or not getting an offer because they go with a candidate with more experience (I have 1 year experience). Any advice for companies to apply to or with getting an offer despite not having as many years experience as others?

I’ve been a little depressed after being laid off from my job I only had for 6 months. I took this job to be closer to home with the intention of this being a long term job for me. I’m so lost. I’ve been spending hours and hours trying to update my resume, but at the same time, I’ve been thinking if I want to stay on the same career path because it's what I know and have been doing for 15-plus years. I worry I will fall into a job I don't want.

I don’t understand how someone can lie about loving you for 6 months. We were together for almost a year (broke up a week before our anniversary). I said I love you first and he said it back. I asked for more reassurance last month with saying I love you more often. Now all of a sudden he said he didn’t know if he loved me and that love meant marriage for him. Okay well great thanks for telling me this now, 6 months after it was initially exchanged. I don’t understand how he could do that.
