Layed off this morning at CrowdStrike, seeking new opportunities for an analyst or business intelligence type of role. Austin TX or remote. I am Tableau certified, Snowflake SQL + SQL Server, Salesforce Admin/ Marketing experience, Marketo, Excel (Power Query), light Python, ML (NLP, KNN clustering), Georgia Tech MS Analytics program. If you don’t have any opportunities at your company, please feel free to like or leave opportunities at other companies you’re aware of below. I’m not very picky given the current situation, but would love preference towards SaaS/technology, cybersecurity or FinTech/ Finance industry as that’s my primary background. I have extensive experience working across Marketing and Sales. Created KPIs and dashboards for Marketing funnel, eCommerce, lead generation, field sales, product marketing etc. Created dashboards and SFDC campaigns for events with AWS, GCP, Deloitte, etc. Worked with analytics and engineering teams to assist Rest APIs, data hygiene, automating, ML, etc. Presenting to global senior leadership on a weekly basis i.e. CMO, mentoring interns and others, and a Tableau portfolio of statistics and visualizations I built up over the past 3+ years. These are just some examples, I also have an updated resume that goes into more details. Thank you in advance for any opportunity. TC: Layoffs YOE: 2 + Master’s #severance #layoff
Severance?
Yes
I surprised. CrowdStrike was safe tho. What was the severance package? Let me know if you find and position in F5.
Good luck! Can’t help you. Sorry. But why is crowdstrike firing people? I thought cybersecurity is safe
Thank you 🙏🏼 also look at the stock, which is likely why. We’ve already had a lot layed off since December, I thought it was safe (enough) too though - this blindsided me.
Wow crowdstrike was hiring in December
Hiring and firing, guess it depended on the org
Fidelity is hiring. Lots of need for business analytics and security
Any roles with 3 YOE or less?
Most definitely. Check out their Glassdoor postings for a start. They might have some on here too. I got hired out of college and had to do their LEAP program which is basically 3 months to just brush up on stuff before placement. If you've been in the industry for at least a year though you should be fine. Feel free to message for more info
Good luck to you! I thought they were very well funded.
Thank you, and our balance sheet looked good but stock price continued to drop after positive earnings. Looks to be sector wide not just CS.
Sorry this happened OP! How long were you with CS?
Almost 2 years
Wow. Austin based? Sorry to hear. This is a shocker. Crowdstrike I assumed was pretty safe. This makes me nervous… Were layoffs announced, or completely out of the blue?
Completely out of the blue. We have had layoffs periodically the last few months. Just different orgs, recruiting was the big one a few weeks ago
Gotcha. Since Crowdstrike and Zscaler are in comparable industries, and work together, I’ve got to believe Zscaler has something like this in store for us.
I just saw a linkedin post 6 minutes ago from crowdstrike recruiter looking for cloud engineer. Were any engineers laid off

Alright thank you
Was there a mass layoff or was this a one-off? Just posting to wish you good luck.
Not sure yet, last round was mass layoffs. Was told it’s due to “more realignment and change” so assuming mass as that’s the same phrasing used last time.
When was the mass layoff OP?
