Hi Blind Team, I recently joined Unity(less than 4 months) and was laid off yesterday. I am currently on H1B and have 60 days to look for a new job. Can anybody who has been through this process provide any guidance in terms of finding a new job/visa issues/any other experiences that I should know of? I am looking for TPM roles so referrals would be highly appreciated as well. Thank you so much for your help. T.C. : 🥜
I was laid off last week, same situation as yours, found a consulting firm who are doing a h1b transfer for me.
My visa is about to expire soon and I need a job to extend it. Are there any consultancies you recommend that aren't sketch?
Mind dm’in the firm ?
If you are in SoCal you can DM me. My company is hiring TPM but its hybrid.
Do they sponsor h1b ? Have data analyst roles ?
Don’t see any Data Analyst roles atm. Also the company is not the one in my name. And yes they sponsor H1Bs
Seems like I dodged a bullet. Was close to an offer at Unity but the position got cancelled. DM for referral
Is Sony relatively stable? Any news about mass layoffs?
Nope pretty stable specially within PlayStation and no news of layoffs. We are doing good and not impacted the economy slowdown.
DM for Apple referral but ONLY if you find opening in the Apple Careers site.
DM for C1. Safest bet in this environment!
@croudstrike, do y'all have any embedded/low level work?

OP any idea how many were let go ?
I would guess around 300, but not sure!
Sad to hear this. Please DM me if you are interested in Walmart. Happy to help. I was planning on getting into Product at Unity. How is the product culture at Unity?
I would say there is no focus currently on building a good product, have not seen any product market fit analysis for new product. So would avoid it if you are a PM. P.S. Suffering from recency bias of being laid off 😅 so would post a general post on blind as well to confirm
How is the work load at walmart for SDET's?
