pretty good severance
What would someone who joined 2 months ago get? 🤔
Mostly go to market, with targeted layoffs in r and d and g and a
When there are layoffs in go to market, are only AEs affected or solutions engineers too?
What's included in GTM? PM teams too?
Is the company doing very bad or they are anticipating the future
My guess is anticipating future given current market
Twilio committed to being profitable for 2023 no matter what so this is probably to ensure that
I think it was pretty evident from how their company is internally changing directions every quarter and how buggy their whole system is.
Oh wow yikes
UX impacted? I have a few friends over there in that line of work.
i'm on the UX team and trying to figure this out. so far, no news has been good news.
Sounds like a few people but it was related to the product team they were on more than being in UX in particular
My team at AWS is looking for several SDE2s. Good money making org with supportive leadership and fast growth. Anyone impacted can DM me.
What areas are impacted? segment?
go to market, talent, and some r&d
Is it done ? Did impacted people got emails already
Yes. It was outside of the estimated hour, but everyone has been notified and computers have been remotely locked. The end.
