When I log into Glassdoor, I expect to see posts that will help me in my pursuit of new employment, not vaguely worded political posts. Listen, this isn't Reddit, please keep your politics out and put in more good tips, life hacks, and tricks to getting work.

There’s a ton of different bowls with different purposes, including Politics bowl. Like it or not, it’s affecting our companies and jobs.

It's like the old Dylan song, "We live in a political world..." A lot of people are having their livelihoods and their very lives upended by the political chaos being unleashed. It's only to be expected that political events and their consequences would come up in conversations here, or anywhere else really. If you want to try to police people's speech, that's your right, but I would expect that mentions of the building crisis will simply overtake your efforts.

So I have been made an offer by a company I like but it’s pretty similar to my current package (I also like where I am). The recruiter is pretty intense and is pitting me against another candidate but says I’m the number one choice and is asking me for a number to say yes “but not too high or the team will look at the other candidate”
I’m close to send them to get stuffed. I’m also awaiting a promo and interview feedback from Google. Any advice?

Tech company lay offs….are they soon to be inevitable?!

There is lots of companies really taking a hit in the tech space. Is this something that people are nervous about?

And if so, which depts do you think will get hit the hardest?
