I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
Although Amazon has instituted a hiring freeze and layoffs are probably on their way, I went through the loop for a security engineer position at AWS. Before I attended the final interviews, Amazon placed the hiring freeze and called me to ask if I wanted to go ahead or cancel my application. I decided do go ahead Right now I'm waiting for their response and the position I applied to changed from "under consideration" to "no longer under consideration". Thoughts?
Lol shots fired

Your current company won’t know you’re leaving for a competitor unless you tell them…
Very true. But if they let her go early, OP will likely get paid for that 2 weeks anyway. Depends on if OP cares if people know.
It wouldn’t be unusual since your access to sensitive information is a liability.
Yeah family first PM1, keep your boys safe
Best not to even give notice until you get the bonus anyways, at which point it doesn’t matter if you get fired day of or after the 2 weeks period.
Basically what I did leaving Deloitte for a competitor.
However, they did let me finish out my notice which let me cash in one last paycheck which was nice of them considering I opened my laptop for 30 min a day at that point.
Probably not likely they would fire you -- more likely they would just tell you that you do not need to report to work for those two weeks. and to turn in your computer adn any information immediately. That is how we used to do it at my prior company.

You don’t have to share where you go. And based on the comment above waiting until your bonus hits is a smart move 👍🏼
The Deloitte HR resignation form requires you to enter your new company name and new title.
