I joined a team that has been fully remote since 2015
Tech Industry job layoffs looking scary
- Thread starter dtownreppin214
- Start date
Breh, you literally just post for props and likes. You got no solutions other than "fukk all that" ...
We need more brehs in tech. Saying we should stay away only makes things worse. If more brehs get in, we'd be able to hire other brehs and mentor them
I get it. But I'm just looking out for the brehs who don't understand the uphill battle they're up against. Some brehs just need jobs/careers and ain't trying to "fight the good fight" or "change the industry" or some over sensationalized things that get said over the internet. Not everyone is down to start a revolution.
You’re right. This is a serious thread.
My solutions are pretty much the same. Everyone looking for a job will eventually have a job. And when they do, I hope they save as much as possible. Because one thing about tech is, it’s not reliable. Google and apple use to be companies I’d be excited to work at. Not anymore. Searching for and finding a job as a black man is really an underestimated feat. So those of you making bank I hope you stash your money. The stories in this thread have been nothing short of traumatizing. Just insane.
Save your money.

In the onboarding process with Telus now. My wife was with Appen for a few months before they cut it. I never applied since they were stating you couldn’t be in the same household. In process of quitting my 9-5 so been finding things I can do on the side while focusing my energy on my business.
Let’s keep the beef to other threads man.
Ive never understood the point of salesforce. I used it once at my first analyst job and it was the most useless, tedious and redundant tool ever.
And the only reasoning behind why my employer at the time was using it, was because they spent so much money upfront paying someone to setup a system. That was too overly technical for the users.

Same investors probably complaining about remote work dumped on them
Not meant to be investment advice, but imagine your employer killing remote work while your company's future looks uncertain at best, bleak at worst because of A.I
If I were working there, I'd probably start interviewing elsewhere and think about leaving.

Nah, every salary I’ve seen come out of that company is bloated af. Sit on that paycheck until you’re forced to make a move.

That's a good point.
At worst I'd make sure Leetcode skills are sharp or at least start to grind at this point.
Although I think everyone should be doing that nonetheless if they're trying to maintain a high salary.
