Joining in a few weeks, worried about the layoff. I understand nobody knows for sure, what's your guess based on different factors?
I was on a team with few folks in Poland location. They were never included in lot of meetings due to conflict of time and later within 8-10 months they let them go. Unless your team is based out of poland it might not be an insurance.
No job is safe from layoffs. If you are leaving a stable job with comparative comp, then do your due diligence. If Google is a huge step up from your current job then don't think much about the layoffs. Worse case you get the decent severance.
My current job is stable, good team, pay is the same. Bad decision on my part giving the notice 😕
It'll be fine, you passed the interview so other companies should be equivalent or easier skill wise. Only question is how much competition.
Maybe safe you can get like 3 L5s in Poland for price of a L3 in MTV?
that's true, even my no name company pays the same
Uh..
Yes, all 3 of you guys over there are safe.
What TC you got in Poland?
Yes, your job is totally safe. Congrats on finding the one role that will never be impacted by layoffs. 👍
thanks, I guess?
It just baffles me when corporate employees ask for some sort of guarantee that there won’t be layoffs. You’re working for a company that has over 150k employees. They will lay you off in a heartbeat and not think anything of it. It doesn’t matter what your tenure is, how the stock price is doing, how much money the company is making.. no one is safe from layoffs.
