Is now a bad time to go into Tech? Been seeing hiring freezes/layoffs at companies like Coinbase, Meta, Robinhood, Apple, Uber, Lyft, etc.

This is actually a great time to go into tech because the shares are awfully cheap. Your options are granted at hire date price so better upside.

Receivables stay ~~same, payable increases 3x. I dont see how this is due to financing it better, rather than just an effect of increased operating expenses.

I don’t believe Meta has a hiring freeze. Seeing a ton of posts and know someone just kicking off the interview process.

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you

Hi Everyone,
I need your views and suggestions. I have two doubts:
1. Is it fair to leave an organisation (big brand) after a year as the environment is real toxic and there’s no career growth as well in terms of good work.
2. If I have to make a switch do I really have to target big brands only or can try for medium and small size companies too.
