Came across LI post of convoy RIF affecting some people. Can anyone one confirm?
It’s true
SWEs too?
Yes
Yes, I’m one. Other engineering positions were also impacted. The suddenness was awkward to say the least. Anyway, hope everyone impacted including me gets an offer soon 🙏
DM for Amazon
What team were you on?
What? Where is link to the post?
Yep, 7% of the company, 13% of eng
I'm curious why it's a higher percentage for eng. Isn't eng usually less impacted by layoffs?
Not sure, we might learn more at the all hands tomorrow
lol. a convoy recruiter reached out to me today
Seemed like a sudden call, few people were aware until today
Nobody is aware of this. My manager even asked to seek LinkedIn referrals to our team earlier this week.
We’re still hiring for some positions. Leadership took this opportunity to clean house a little bit and extend our runway.
Terribly sorry to hear about the Convoy layoffs. Our company is hiring in a similar space, fully remote! https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/Exofreight
What s convoy. Lol
I think they do like self driving trucks or something
Anyone impacted looking to stay in the industry dm for details on an up-and-coming logistics startup that just raised their A with an amazing team hiring across the board.
Confirmed
