My wife and I work in the same company but in different roles. I just got laid off yesterday, and I'm at the managerial level. She's a copywriter on the same team as I am, but she was saved from this round... but what do you think? Is she safe or is she going to be cut off sooner than later?

Nobody is safe

I don't think anybody has the answer to this sadly Anything can happen but in my experience of what's been going on, yes, I do think your wife is better off starting to look for other gigs.

I completed my interview loop at Google on August 12, 2022. My recruiter informed me on August 29th that due to a couple of realignments within the org, the hiring manager has not shared any feedback. I was informed on September 8th that the hiring committee is scheduled the next day (September 9th) and that I can expect a final feedback latest by September 12th. I wasn’t informed of the results and reached out, but the recruiter isn’t replying to my emails. Does this mean I was rejected?
