Recession impact on FAANG?

Curious to know if there was any impact on FAANG companies during the economic slowdown in 2007-2009. Were there any layoffs? Would like to listen from people who were there during that time. yoe: 3 TC: just the amazon average

Facebook almost just started Google was pretty young Netflix was not so relevant So pretty much you could have asked about Amazon and Apple And I think Apples growth was just starting with the new iPhone and iPad. So they might not have been in this scale. So pretty much Amazon to discuss about in FAANG

This is a dumb as fuck kind of question. The industry was completely different back then. What are you 15 and think the world was the same?
