Hi guys. Anyone here can confirm if the new wave of layoffs at Amazon will impact new grads who are yet to join? I was impacted by delayed start dates for new grad SDE and current start date of mine is in December. I have lost all hopes of joining Amazon already yet wanted to confirm one last time if this will indeed turn into rescinding of New Grad SDE offers as I graduate in May and can't wait till December to begin employment. Have already started looking for backups though. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect such scenes will be there once I complete my masters. Too much stress lol! #amazonlayoffs #newgrad #sdejobs #offerdelayed
Sorry, but mostly likely it will have impact as there are thousands of new grads that are set to join by end of year.
You can’t be laid off if you haven’t joined. Your officer will be rescinded
I would expect some impact, but imo most offers will stay
From sources I know they’re going ahead with college hires and interns. Remember, this is all a sham. They still want the cheap labor.
Find a different job to start sooner, preferably a month or two after you graduate - take some time off, you deserve it! Then come December time (or whenever it is that Amazon decides to give you a start date), you can decide - either stay at current place and say "no thank you, screw you" to Amazon, or join Amazon full-time while potentially keeping the current job part-time (if you like it that much). As a former Amazonian (left in early 2022), I sincerely doubt they will revoke their offer to you as a new grad. They need new people because new people = lower salary in today's job market.

Yall say this but I got laid off after joining as a new grad in 2022 😭 if they decide to do tenure based cuts in ur org then ur gone :(
If in Seattle area Brown Bear car wash is hiring. They pay at least $20/hour.
I thought that’s mostly automated like they got instructions for the driver to do and a dude pushing buttons and that’s it
Its mostly automated, but the attendant still has to manually pre-wet each car before and post hand dry the cars. They also have to operate the til for cash payments. Other duties would be to wash and dry the used cloth towels. Finally clean the shop like sweep floors and etc.
Weren’t there leak texts of Amazon leadership pretty much discussing how they are prioritizing new grads for software roles due to cheaper labor. Remember reading an article on it and I feel like other big tech companies are following this same protocol as well.
If thats the case then they should not have delayed mine and others offers right after we graduate by 6 months. And they should reduce the delay and call us sooner. Seeing companies playing with a lot of lives actually these days without thinking anything. How will they play when they don't have any cheap labour left will be interesting.
@OP Depends on your role I guess, but go ahead and google “Leaked Amazon memo shows it only wants to hire students and new grads for entry-level software roles”
they rescinded new grad offers last couple years but I think they compensated the individuals impacted in some manner
Like a backpack full of bananas
Along with a pack of peanuts
Most of the responses you will get here are disconnected from new grad reality. Are you not in the discord server? Generally, you can expect your offer to be safe. There’s always a chance, but ASP offers seem to be protected.
Yes but there are other jobs out there
What company is this lmao
Lmao atleast give referral at microsoft man come on, need SDE jobs :(
