Google lays off 100 at YouTube; CEO says more layoffs are coming::undefined
When I was in college, working for Google was a dream job for a lot of my friends. I have to think that hiring from that position is awesome --- lots of really smart, motivated, enthusiastic grads, and you get to pick the best. I wonder if all that has changed?
Old article, and yes, "corporations are not friends" yada yada: https://www.businessinsider.com/tech-companines-that-havent-had-layoffs-job-cuts-yet-2023-1
If I'm ever in the market for another job and have the luxury of choice, the layoff question will be pretty high up.
They'll never really answer the layoff question. Probably best to simply stay away from corporations that chronically overhire and go through regular layoff cycles.
Nah, they'll answer it, but the person answering it isn't in control of it, and things change on a whim.
