I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

Be loyal to your loved ones (family, friends, what have you). That’s it.
Loyalty is earned. If my employer keeps paying me more than everyone else they get me for another year.
Agree. Company is never loyal to employees who is loyal. Better title and increment are for new employees and they don’t bring parity to existing employees just because they are loyal.
I have done quite well to myself being loyal to people rather than organisations where people take decisions, and to organisations over people where it is the other way round.
My own firm is people driven, and loyalty and trust in the (few) people i really like has accelerated my career X-fold.
At my key client, people come and go, but being loyal to the organisation - who in the end is my job-provider - has kept me very successful for 10+ years now.
As always: it depends, the world is not as easy as the populist / alpha-capitalist / whatever in vogue now rhetoric may postulate.
