What is the deal with all the layoffs? I’m hearing there have been layoffs all across the board. I’m also hearing massive rehiring. Is any of that true?

Sometimes they call them “layoffs” to get rid of people they don’t want to have to fire (provides some legal cover, I believe). Then they turnaround and hire people for those same roles. It’s weird but seeing it happen.

I was in the final round of interview with Amazon right before the layoff news came out. A week later, I got an “incline” offer for the position that I’m applying to. Can anyone share their experience and tell me what that “incline” means? Retail Operations getting hit. I wonder if this opening will still be available. If so, I got an offer later. Will this be a hire to fire case?

I’ve been tracking the recent tech layoffs. It’s hard too see so many talented people be affected. Has anyone seen data around the type of roles being most affected? It looks like Marketing Ops roles have been largely spared from the layoffs. What is everyone else seeing and experiencing out there? Marketing Ops has always felt relatively safe because most teams run lean anyway, but we’re living in strange times.

@MBB's how is your firms immune to the up-coming financial crisis. what type of projects due to see higher demand in marketplace in the crisis. (i hope its not all cost cutting projects - aka#layoffs)

The two most common things on this bowl that disappoint:

(1) people saying what do you think you signed up for

(2) people saying that's why we get paid the big bucks.

Nobody thats suffering actually understood it was going to be that bad. And that's no reason to tolerate/perpetuate the toxic parts of our profession even if you did.

And, we don't get paid large salaries to deal with unhealthy environments. We get paid because we perform a function our clients are legally required to use.

Agree or disagree: The most productive companies post-COVID will retain work from office cultures but reserve a dedicated month or two per year where all employees are work from anywhere... This will keep continuity of communication across teams while also affording employees the freedom to spend more time with their families or travel places they might not have otherwise. (i.e. company-wide “Remote August”).

I’m new to this startup and was leading a cross functional project involving several other product teams with dependencies. When we got near the end with E2E testing, I realized that none of the product teams really do QA: no test scripts, not logs of dev unit testing, no documentation of testing cycles – there devs asked “what do we do about edge cases?” I raised this to my boss (since I don’t manage those other teams) and he said I’m creating unnecessary stress for the teams. Is he right?
