Congrats D1. No harm in checking with your manager is there is a slot. Its a numbers game and there could be a high performer you could save. Win win.
Hope the new place is good.

It’s rather sad. This place has taken a huge dump recently. At this point, I like to think it’s just people getting scared and leaving on their own, but unfortunately it’s not just that.

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.
