    I still remember that one huge Google layoff from two years ago. I think like over 10,000 people were let go, even those who worked there for 10+ years.

          second, Tech companies hired more than they need during the pandemic period. so eventually some employees would be redundant. if you see recent hiring graph/chart, you can understand it.

            Anonymous, 11 Jan 2024Are you high? Unemployment is lower than anytime since WW2. The economy is better than it has ... moreare you serious FR? surely better than post WW2 level but then the world economy was a fraction of what we have now. interest rates are much higher than pre pandemic, because of war and other issues supply chains are broken. we are not in the worst state but not in a better state too.

                    To some your comment may come across bigoted or worse, racist - yet to others in the tech industry know you're not being either.

                    That said, comparing how Pichai Sundararajan, better known as Sundar Pichai, runs Google

Creating an entire cloud infrastructure that outperforms and infantessmally vast in scalability replacing and complimenting core business strategy ... well you can just tell which is the con man and which inspired confidence.

                                      IpsDisplay, 11 Jan 2024This always puzzles me why managers/ supervisors usually know nothing about the businessAnd again, I do work there. If you're wondering why they sent you mails when your app development has no issues at extreme point... it's because they made adjustments to the process flows without thinking about the consequences. Neither we are trained with the new guidance, and there are no updates from them for MONTHS.

                                      You might receive messages that we'll get back to you. But the truth behind it is that we're waiting for a bunch of useless managers who went for vacations and no updates for urgent situations like this.

                                      If you don't work there, you won't know how horrible the systems and the work environment are.
