Happy layoff hunger games
The layoffs must have pissed some people off.
So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?
Layoffs on the horizon?

Something tells me all the virtue signalling is more of a desperate attempt to generate PR to find new business leads (or be invited to pitch) rather than motivated by altruism. The execs who run these places use the same old bag of tricks rather than question how their existing business model can't even cover payroll for a couple months even with the promise of government subsidies. It makes you wonder if they've been playing a shell game all along. I work at an independent agency and they guaranteed no layoffs or paycuts for 10 straight weeks since shutting down.
I know one of these got reasonable severances.
But "what's being done to support people who aren't employees?" is also a naive take. They owe us nothing.
Great question. I’d assume pay cuts across the board happened a while back.
Have other shops had layoffs other than the ones mentioned above?
I heard big names were being cut at Rethink?
