Employees had a fun run in the last two years negotiating offers on offers and ghosting multiple companies. 
 It's payback time.

Unfortunately it's not karmic in its truest sense. Employees who did not do this are also getting impacted.

We(employees) need to understand the fact that we are powerless, we can't do anything, but they can.

All so called famous MNCs, Wipro. TCS, Accenture, cognizant, infosys. 
  
 I was part of one of the above mentioned mnc, i got my first project call and the manager promised that I'll be working on development( automation scripts). 
  
 But later after joining the team he said, it's a pure support role, if i had said it's a support role during project call  no one is joining, hence I lied. 
  
 And as a fresher i couldn't change or roll off that project from 1 year (company norms)

Daily we are seeing MNC who has Crores or rupees in bank but Playing Layoff Layoff Because Everyone is layoffing so why not i?

Why Still we are using that apps /Product - They don't even know how many our brother and Sister left countries with all of Sudden, Children lefts school forever, People are taking expensive flights because airline wants all left money from them, Home Deposits because homes are under Contract, Every single thing is against of Layoff Person.

Hate It.

If Layoff than Why not you Boycott

I am a L4 manager in amazon. My entire team has been asked to go, now i am concerned about my carrer. It ia so sad that our Indian government doesn't support us. My future is now uncertain. I wish we had someone to stand up for us.

Amazon tyrany continues

First of all government can't do shit. I know you are a European law loving crazyhead since layoffs in Europe are avoided to due to pro-employee laws. But I want you to remember that the current layoff environment where companies struggled to layoff in Europe hasn't gone unnoticed by companies. If companies feel that pro-employee laws are too strict, they will simply close their European offices and open shops in Eastern/African/Middle Eastern/South American nations. Just because there is a law does not mean that companies will keep on following it. And as it is European offices are some of the most low ROI centres of development due to so many holidays/relaxed work culture/zero impact projects. Europe is fucked unless Europe resorts to war against Africa/East/Middle East/South America.

It’s disheartening to see 1000s of people being laid off in recent times. Most of them have a family to feed and EMIs / bills to pay.

Today it’s them and tomorrow it could be Me and You as well. 

And it’s pretty much clear that these new age companies are not empathetic and would go to any extent to meet their goals.

Why isn’t any employee doing anything about these atrocities? 

Following are the few ways to send out a strong message to these employers for abusing / blackmailing / and forcing resignations and PIPs (share more in comments)

1. Boycott their products / Services - make a noise about it on social media.

2. Stop subscribing to their IPOs or start dumping their stocks.

3. Uninstall their apps.

Can't believe when you are laid off from your organisation and ur company decides to take their leftover employees on a retreat ...how stupid is that ?
They even have the audacity to keep it public and share it on their statuses...it really heartbreaking .
Specially when there is no hope for a job in the
Market. 
Nevermind.. that's how companies are.
Will be grateful for the free used company laptop and 2 months severance pay i got.

Companies doing layoffs are conducting offsites at the same time ?

Consultant

As we know tech companies and startups are laying off people left and right irrespective of making profits 🤑💰. It's understandable if the companies are out of funds but doing this when you are enjoying profits is not acceptable. 

And u guys are also not any less. Stop being a victim and fool. Stop complaining about layoffs on social media platforms as everyone will forget them with time. 

It's time to do cutoffs on your behalf. Cut off subscriptions to big tech companies and startups. Join this wave of cutoffs to see the news of subscription revenue down by 10% or 20% rather than companies cutting off workforce by 10% or 20%

The change should start with you. Stop subscribing to Amazon Prime, YouTube Premium, Spotify and others. Encourage your peers to do the same and see the change yourself by the end of this quarter

I mean sabko toh layoff kar diya. Bache huo na resigne nahi kiya?

Are there even employees left in Byju's, Since they are about to do another round of layoffs.

Got to know through my network that Brainly india has asked the entire team from their MD to all junior folks to go. Reason - sudden change in strategy.. they didn’t let the product even launch.. the team was in full swing prepping.. impacted folks 30+ or around that number.. within 6 months of hiring everyone.. while in the interviews they promised 5 years runway.. long term strategy for india.. ceo didn’t even apologise.. they come hire Indians and let go at the drop of a hat.. the employment contract said that either party have to give 3 months notice to resign.. so that’s what they did they are giving 3 months pay not in one go but month on month and after that nothing. No severance pay, no bonus paid to eligible employees, no help in finding jobs , no mental health support, medical finishes in 3 months.. in this time when hiring is on global freeze they have treated Indians like puppets come hire and fire when you want, they have money in bank account a runway for 18-24 months.. still they couldn’t hold on to india team.. heartless way of dealing with junior folks how will we find jobs

Brainly India - entire team laid off

This is actually happening in every company. I personally went thought this and have no motivation to work because I don’t when my email will be logged out.

Unacademy fires 250 employees to 'turn profitable'

Pathetic. How many times these so called another layoff?  
 This is pure scam. Such kind of CEOs and CTOs have no right to be at such higher places. These id*ots come to media and give lectures also. There should be some laws in place for layoffs. These People wake up and do layoff. Some get funding and then do layoff and some vice versa. Some fire and then again post about hiring next month shamelessly. It's like a fashion for the. Layoff is no more a last resort these days.  
 These kind of companies will surely go down the drain.  
 CEOs and higher management should be made to disclose their salary and perks so that junior employees should also know how much salary difference is there and is there really a need for cost cutting.  
 Of not, we should atleast stop respecting/ideologise such people. If possible stop using/promoting their products as well. Treat them the way they treat employees.

Operations Manager

don't you guys think that this whole layoff this is creating more panic among people because of the news click baits than it actually is ??
ofcourse layoffs are happening but newschannels makes you feel like whole world has stopped working 😅

Layoffs

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Work culture has become ultra toxic. Managers have started nano managing and literally are a pain in the ass. Product giving unrealistic timelines and leadership agreeing on the same without even consulting the developers and even if the developers are raising concerns, no fucks are given infact they are made to realise that this is how a startup should work. Literally everyone is working their asses off and still unable to meet the deadlines. Empathy is completely lost and WLB is a sham. People including me want to switch but are not even getting time to prepare.

Rant on Swiggy wlb

This is all trickling down from the Leadership, they are trying to cut down costs by any means. Already had one round of layoffs, now they are doing silent layoffs in the form of PIPs. 
  
 Also, Leaders have lost the long term focus and are trying to find out more and more short term projects related to profitability.  
  
 There was always this pressure of work, but in the past 7-8 months this has become unbearable with no empathy in the organisation.

Week back there were posts by linkedin engineers that linkedin is hiring SDEs and anyone can as referral and today they laid off 700 people.

Like whats happening man!!! Is the company dumb or what?

LinkedIn Layoffs India

(1) Reduce cost of human capital -> (2) Post better EBITDA numbers in earnings calls -> (3) Get big bonuses and sell your equity if its value is rising -> (4) Hire a lot of people again so that you can repeat this cycle again to profit

People who argued over authenticity over other thread. Here is the confirmed report on layoff!

My friend informed that silent layoffs are expected in Gojek today

Layoff Gojek

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Me and my spouse in total are earning 6 Lakh a month pre-tax, but inspite of that there is too much pressure on finances. I am just amazed with the cost of living. Rents, School fees, EMIs, Taxes are just eating away all the income. I am barely left with 1 lakh at end of month. 

This saving is not enough for any emergency. Recently my family faced with medical emergency and I am still recovering with the debt it created. Company covered health insurance denied the claim on certain grounds and we were f**c***.

It looks so pretty from outside, but honestly I am frustrated even with this package in hand. Is anyone else feeling the pressure, or I am just bad at managing finances?

High costs of Living. Anyone feeling the pressure?

There are news that massive layoffs are coming in Paytm. HR and Business Heads have been given targets - average 30% reduction expected across all teams. #bravenewworld

Massive Layoffs Coming - Paytm

Poor timing !! Festive season, Christmas/new year and these layoffs. 
   
 It's a remainder for everyone that companies won't even think twice before laying you off. So stop making any company your dream or glorifying it.
