Salesforce folks, heard about the layoffs. Any idea which department was the most impacted? One of my friends who was a recruiter got laid off. Did tech people also get laid off?

To be clear, was your recruiter friend laid off yesterday? Some recruiters were laid off a few weeks back, I had only heard sales for yesterday...

This week it was sales and the number I heard was 2000 which seems crazy. OTOH I always thought that this team was way overstaffed.

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being “unenthusiastic in our morning meeting”. Now I’m having anxiety searching for a job. I don’t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a “salesperson mentality”. I’m burnt out. Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?

Does Globant terminates the employment of certain trainees after their probation(3 Months) based on their performance in the training period? Some of the fresher trainees were laid off this morning without giving a notice or reason.

We were told that the probation period is a training period & not an elimination one. It was shocking as a few of those trainees were actually good.
