How is everyone? As we see more and more layoffs in our industry, we know there are so many navigating what it looks like to now be unemployed. The others still working are left with gaps on their teams and sadness over the loss of their peers, leaders, and friends.

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM. I come from a Big4 consulting firm with a background in Enterprise Performance. I’ll be honest and say I’m not feeling very safe in my current role with the ongoing layoffs. Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.

I was laid off last to last week, can anyone of your please refer me to your company, I'm 1.5 year exp in Java Spring Boot Angular Postgres Camunda BPMN..

I'm feeling a lot of anger towards my manager (now he's acting normal but there were moments where he was condescending/dismissive/mocked my and others work/arrogant/said stuff was "wrong" constantly/belittling the difficulty of tasks etc. in the past project).
Maybe it is "standard chewing out" but it bothered me a lot. So much that I find myself still getting all fired up inside thinking about it...
Idk how to let go of this :/ Thoughts?

So, I just fired my first employee as a manager and I'm heartbroken. He was a great, great person but after 6 months on a PIP he just wasn't cutting it skills-wise. I know he was the provider of the household and his wife didn't have a job since she was raising three young ones. Needless to say, I had to take off because I felt terrible, sick to my stomach. How do you deal with firing guilt? Is that a thing? I can't help but feeling like I did something wrong.

Hey guys! Yesterday the company i worked for laid off the people in our state for economic reasons with no notice. I’m in desperate need of referral in entry level SWE/SD(or similar) positions at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Have a meeting scheduled with my boss tomorrow with no explanation. Think I’m getting fired because I’ve been making mistakes recently. I’m not handling this well and I’m feeling tempted to use. I know if I do get fired I’ll be a mess.

I’m so f*cking scared of fucking something up, getting fired and then being unemployable…

Is this a good time to look for new opportunities? I'm hearing rumors about significant layoffs starting. Also, what is the salary expectation for a 3rd year in Chicago small firm? Midsize? Is there a big difference for suburban firms?

Are more massive layoffs coming? What industries (in-house/ecomm) are safest right now or during a recession?

Exited to a tech company 2 weeks ago. Should I be worried about layoffs… strategy and operations role

Has anyone been fired? How’d you bounce back? How did you approach it when applying for new jobs? I’m legitimately worried I’ll be fired and could use some advice.

If I get fired while on OPT without getting my H1-B stamped, is it useless or can it be used in future for some other job?

Has anyone ever been "let go of"? Either laid off or fired. How did you get through it?

All this talk about firms doing stealth layoffs has me spooked. Any BigLaw firms in Dallas doing this? I’ve noticed some surprising associates leave my firm over the past couple of months and suspect at least some of them were ice-outs…

Any recommendations on books to get up to speed on leading/managing teams as a new manager in consulting? Preference towards tangible case studies etc. vs. high level concepts.

Has anyone here written a book or pursued other avenues of translating their skills and experience into income? Maybe an online course?
