With all the layoffs news, how do u cope when…

Someone in ur team or someone u had good relationship (work wise) with gets laid off? Do u discontinue working as hard? Does ur team velocity decrease or increase as everyone does better for survival? Just wanna hear from folks who have gone through this and does employer not see any affect in work? (E.g. Twitter case)

The employer never cares. You are a replacable headcount and that's a reality. Yes morale goes down in the team, culture goes for a toss. I would say it depends on the individual on how affected one feels, as the promotion hungry colleague would still grind the same way no matter what.

What did your manager/leadership do?

After there was a layoff at your company 1- Impacted by layoff : Did your manager/team mates connect with you to keep you motivated? 2- The ones not impacted - Did your leadership/manager set up a team call to explain the reason for layoff and remove the fear/uncertainty that the rest of the people are safe. What did it tell you about the higher management of the company?

Deadlines without discussion

I work at a small scale startup where I interact daily with the CTO whom I directly report. Recently, he has been giving tighter deadlines for critical projects at work and is not willing to discuss anything related to the scope or timeline of the projects. He just expects me to finish everything in x number of days without asking for even the slightest estimate of the duration. This has led to me missing due dates for projects which he later blames on me quoting poor performance during reviews. Has anyone encountered such problems before? How did you handle it?
