I think a better question would be who in tech hasn’t experienced layoffs? Between AI and a bad economy. The tech sector has been dropping jobs left and right for a year and a half now. Being in tech used to be such a stable industry, but not anymore.

Almost all of my friends in tech have been laid off at one point or another. Every industry is susceptible to layoffs, but tech always seems to be the hardest hit. It's interesting that the layoffs appear to be resulting in higher salaries. I would not have expected that.

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated. I may or may not try to lock in a good rate early, but I'm planning on renting it out and this throws a bit if a wrench in my margins. I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?

Very specific to retail and/or hospitality in-house roles: has anyone found a good solution for predictive scheduling?

I’m coming up empty on ideas for them to bridge the gap, but I’m also new to my compliance counsel role, so I would be overjoyed if anyone has suggestions.
