Given the current circumstances surrounding workplace concerns such as layoffs, workload, and a healthy work environment/team, would it be a prudent decision to transition from my current non-tech program manager position at Amazon to pursue a role at Autodesk? While I am content with my current position, I am seeking better financial opportunities. However, I am hesitant about the potential of leaving one company only to encounter layoffs shortly after joining a new organization. Additionally, I would prefer to avoid investing time in interviewing for a position if the company is not actively hiring at present but conducting interviews for future requirements. It's important to note that I am specifically interested in a non-technical program manager role at AD, specifically a Customer Success PM. Also, any additional feedback, opinions, etc. on Autodesk and/or their Customer Success PM role would be greatly appreciated!
Autodesk is in a light hiring freeze because voluntary attrition was low, but the CEO doesnโt want to do layoffs. They would be small cuts but not company layoffs. Iโve never heard of the rabid PIP culture here like at Amazon. The people who get PIPed deserve it.
