Why is Yahoo Hiring if Layoffs are coming?
I don’t get it, they’re hiring like crazy. When I joined on I onboarded with about 15 other engineers. And still a ton more roles available on LinkedIn. At the same time hiring just to fire sucks especially considering how grueling their interview process is. For me personally it was 11 in total including 6 tech screenings. Also I understand layoffs could be just rumors but that doesn’t seem likely. TC 270
I don’t think it’s hire to fire. Most are fire in Cali and hire elsewhere. Let me know if it’s the same with you 🎃
Yeah out of NY. When I initially spoke to the recruiter I asked for 175 and she asked if I was ok with 190 instead. Then through in a bunch of other perks. Bonus, sign on bonus MEP. That’s why it doesn’t make sense to me.
Recruiter asked if you’re okay with a higher salary?!
Hiring and firing is the playbook
Because this is all a wage suppression strategy
Can I get a referral for Yahoo?
If you refer me at Pinterest
Sure let’s trade referrals (DM me)
Hire for lower comp, let go of the higher comps.
Yahoo still exists?
I think they are full remote? Thats the plus
Aren’t they planning on going public ?
I wouldn’t know. Everyone within my department is new. No one knows anything.
They are planning on going public, And must be on to something. Otherwise they wouldn’t want to hamper their bottom lines.
