Hi fishes

Recently saw a post on linkedIN where a company has fired 900 employees over a zoom call.

Today I saw another post of a BI developer getting laid off without any prior notice.

Just wanted to know if anyone else also faced similar situations, since I see the market being very good in terms of switch options and better compensations

But seeing the above 2 scenarios I am a bit sceptical about making my switch

These are isolated incidents. Rest of the world is hiring like crazy. The first example you gave is for a startup (coincidentally started by a desi) that ran out of cash so will have to let people go.

@Devops 1
Well, softbank isn't exactly in great shape right now

Zoom call happened in USA, and they are not tech people. Whatever you saw on LinkedIn happens throughout the year! Nothing to worry!

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.

Hi, received an offer from another Big4 in Amsterdam (currently working in Eastern Europe), but relocating, I’m concerned about potential layoffs in the coming period being the last to join the team.

I seem to go through this cycle where I'll try to fix a problem, fix it and then go back to my old ways. I'm trying to fight against it but basically my performance review is coming up and I think it's likely I'm going to be let go because of my failure to meet expectations. Earlier in the year I was going through a rough time and working through it, I have gotten better over the course of the year but I feel it's not enough. I got fired from my last job. I'm so sick of this cycle
