Tech Industry job layoffs looking scary

[threattonature]

Yeahhhh I wouldn't advise NOBODY to quit in this climate. Even if you don't get severance you can at least still get unemployment.

Facts. It's the main reason I haven't been looking. It'd be crazy to leave one job out of fear of layoffs when in a lot of places the newer hires are the first in the line of fire for layoffs so companies can pay as little severance as possible. Especially since in most places new hires for the same position make just as much if not more as others in the same position who have worked there for a while.

Mortgages stay the same

idk about all that with Property Taxes and Insurance, that said the changes are nothing compared to how much rent can change.

The L's are just piling up now. Imagine getting treated like some grade school kids as an adult.

"In the latest Jeff Clarke return-to-grade-school initiative, HR will be keeping an attendance report card on employees, grading them at four levels based on how well they meet the goal of being in the office 39 days a quarter," a source familiar with Dell told The Register, referring to the IT giant's chief operating officer.

"Employees who do not meet the attendance requirement will have their status escalated up the ladder to Jeff Clarke, who apparently believes that being a hall monitor trumps growing revenue."

Mortgages stay the same

Not if you’re on an adjustable variable. My mortgage has gone up $2k/month

Isn't that a widely agreed upon L?

Of course. But in Canada all of our mortgages are basically like that. Every 5 years you need to renew. Is it an L? Without question.

Canada . I get it though, you do what you have to do. Canada needs to do something about that two front war they're fighting with the Nap invasion and Chinese land grab

They talk about entry level jobs requiring 2-5 years of experience

There's plenty of tech roles in the government sector. Also, the number of companies getting hit with ransomware/breaches is going to be insane. Going to be interesting to see how hard these companies doing layoffs will be hit.

Nah I don't think it's over though I do believe we will see a huge number of people jumping ship to other fields/industries. I've always felt that tech was one of those fields that you only go down if you have a passion for it. There are many other fields that you can make equal or greater money without having to deal with the stress that comes with the tech industry. I think the current situation has opened a lot of people's eyes.
