Ummm.. I don’t see what’s yikes or cringe about this? Have you not seen the widespread layoffs?

EY1 professionalism during trying times is what separates the successful from the unsuccessful. Not saying it’s easy, it’s just true. Everyone’s gotta choose who they wanna be.

I don't see this as cringe. Not the best place to break down, but I've been there before, and when you're that low the first outlet that presents itself is the one that gets used. She'll lose face, sure, but there's much worse out there than this (even on LI). Hopefully things turn up for her, and everyone else in similar situations.

That's important context.

Double Yikes!!

Eh. What people don’t understand is the economy is a zero sum game. And in order to tackle inflation, people must feel more conservative with their money, so demand can come down.

The job market does suck. Working with bad recruiters (which is most of the market) is frustrating. But it’s not about whether or not you think you can do a job. It’s whether or skillset and output are competitive enough with the rest of the job market

It’s not quite that simple. You see, when you print trillions, it’s going to take far more than consumers demanding less. We are either going to need to go well below that baseline or there will be a further economic slowdown. I think it’s gonna be the latter as it’s not possible for households to have negative demand.

Unfortunate way to handle things, but I do get it. The job market specifically in tech is a bloodbath which job figures have thus far not illustrated properly.

Curious why she got so many comments and traffic

Because she is saying what other people think to themselves or say in private to friends and family.

But there is a reason why those same people don’t say those things publicly for all to see. That reason is because it’s going to make it very difficult for a company to want to hire you.

Most of the people in her comments would never say anything like that in a public forum.

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

Is it just me or do 90% of the jobs being laid off by big tech sound made up? Many job descriptions with multiple bullet points that all kinda revolve around the same idea. One of my buddies works for a big IT company and literally just sits on meetings all day. No one really contributing to anything other than agreeing to whatever the speaker is saying. Are these kind of jobs finally being exposed? Six figure employees getting paid to sit and bounce ideas off each other?
