How easy is it to get fired at your company?
I know some companies like Google and Microsoft are supposed to be 'won't fire ever' whereas Facebook and Uber are fire-happy. Is this perception true? Where does your company land in this firing scale? I'll start, Netflix is at the fire-happy end of spectrum. I think we created that end 😂
Relatively so - you are given a chance to meet the bar and provided support, BUT once you are no longer believed to be able to meet it in a reasonable time you are quickly out
Roughly 10% per year are sacrificed to the stack ranking gods. It has nothing to do with goals or skills and is 100% based on if your manager likes you. It’s a laughable amount of nepotism.
Perfectly put.
Microsoft and Google fire people. They have to go through a process, but it's not hard.
Difficult, from what I hear
Amazon ?
Here we just wait 3 months for the next lay-off cycle
Not even a warning
Amazon isn't as bad as Netflix, but it sure is trying.
Tumblr won't fire you unless you harm somebody. You don't even need to work it seems.
AIG fires every year. We just laid off a lot of people.
Not true about Microsoft .. atleast not anymore. Although firing someone is a 1yr long process during which the person is given support and opportunities to improve.
