I guess with the latest Blue Origin layoffs despite their “success” with the New Glenn rocket, it is probably time to blacklist Amazon and all of its associated companies to ever work for. Amazon literally stands for “getting money for the next plastic surgery for Bezos’ girl he’s dating”

I actually had a round of final interviews scheduled with Blue a couple weeks ago. That morning, something told me to decline. Looks like I dodged a serious bullet. Whew!

It just seems like a lot of these tech companies will be churning employees for a while. So I'm not sure how much you can read into a company laying people off, they're constantly trying to reconfigure their workforce on the fly. If we blacklist companies that behave that way it seems like we won't be left with many options.

Or, hear me out: these companies won't be left with many workers unless they 'reconfigure' their business models.

I saw someone else do this, so imma give it a shot.

which is fair, and to show my credibility I published my first app last week, but I’m still getting similar messages from recruiters this week. Idk what to do??
