For those impacted by the Salesforce layoffs - there has been a lot of support committed via public posts on social media. Have you taken anyone up on that offer, and did they follow through?

If people aren’t serious about helping then they shouldn’t say anything— there’s nothing more off-putting than counterfeit behaviors.

Both employees I’ve had to lay off over the past couple of months I’ve written recommendations for (don’t work for SF). Lots of good talent out there! This too will turn around.

Wasn’t laid off (or work at SF) but I have seen a ton of people posting to reach out if they were affected to contact them about roles or referrals.

A good amount of people I see I personally know so I don’t think that’s the case but I’m sure there are some out there showboating.

Tech company lay offs….are they soon to be inevitable?!

There is lots of companies really taking a hit in the tech space. Is this something that people are nervous about? Many seem to still be having a hiring push but with the button falling (IMO this is still just start we have a long way to go to bottom out) will that halt and layoffs ensue? And if so, which depts do you think will get hit the hardest?

Anyone have insight to what the plan is at UpStart for example?

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline?

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

Do you think remote hires are less safe when layoffs come or is that an old school mentality?

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
