Hey I am on Medial • 1y

How can big-tech be so uncertain? They laid off 12k employees last year with a single email. Sure that 6 months of severance helps but it is still ridiculous. Sending emails at 3 am that “expect more layoffs” is such a mental trauma. Living under the fear of getting laid off is the worst. There have been great Indian leaders who risked everything to not layoff a single person in the 2000s crash. I really believe India can set better examples here. Sorry if this sounds like a rant but companies should assess their hiring needs beforehand to prevent such disasters. Pathetic.
