About to get an offer from Pure Storage and in late stages of interviews in Confluent and Uber. Which of them is the safest to join in the current economic conditions? Read a few threads about layoffs at Uber and Confluent. Are more layoffs expected ? @current employees pls share the current mood in these companies. Location: India Current TC: 90 l Yoe: 12yrs
I would strongly suggest to not join Confluent Things are bleak here
Could you pls elaborate? Were there cases of hire to fire?
Culture is screwed. Expecting layoffs hectic workload people are leaving etc etc
@OP one might be relatively better than the other but overall all are in bad condition as per blind. Unless things are really bad, better to stay in current company if you're valued.
Agree @google, not the best time to change jobs. But my current job has become unbearable, toxic management, clueless tech leads, unprofitable product, attrition.
Ah, then it makes sense. Read about Uber. Been hearing about pip for non performance reasons, newcomers being targeted. Research and pick your poison.
Thanks for sharing @lexis !
Deleting the comment for not being flagged again! DM me for any details.
Hey which team in Pure were you interviewed for ?

Stay away from Uber unless they are offering a big salary gap….these days every company is firing, so talk to current employees and find out on what basis they’ve fired and what kind of compensation they offered I’m ex-Uber
Please share location? india?
Yes. India
Got the offers?
Will get it a couple of days
What are the numbers around? I saw uber is lowballing these days
Pure just had a tiny round of layoffs. Anyone joining after this is safe I guess. Anything could happen but mostly safe IMO.
What is expected offer from all?
Not sure of the offers yet. Should know next week, will update here.
