Will people laid off or concerned about being laid off from their tech startups or whatever acronyms (I.e.: FAANG, MAMAA) be ready to join a consulting firm to leverage their skills ? or will they want to stay put and wait for their next job at a new startup or maybe join a tech company that is more insulated from the limited VC funding, as we have seeing VCs pulling back or being a bit more selective about where they put their money.

Depends on their prior consulting experience, if any. If none, then consulting won't be very attractive. People who get laid off or reneged or pipped from startups, coinbase or Amazon tend to be reasonably qualified, have high TC goals and have opportunities at other startups or firms in other industries.

Some consultants turned tech people with little accumulated tech experience may boomerang back to consulting because it is hard to find a new tech job easily. But they'll leave consulting again as soon as they can.

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞
