Does it happen often ? Have an on-site coming up. But a friend of a friend got laid off last year. He was a software engineer at zendesk. Not sure if I hearing the whole story. Could be possible that he got fired for performance reasons
Engineering staff has more than doubled over the last two years, so my guess is there is more to the story.
Didn’t here anything about layoffs... we had a hiring feeeze in q3 but that’s due to over hiring and need to onboard new folks. What I know is freeze has been lifted and hiring is back to normal now. Just interviewed two ppl two weeks back to back. Is it laid off or fire? That’s very different
There is definitely more to this story. In the last year, I don’t believe there were any layoffs. Probably got fired
Probably got fired +1
Definitely got fired. Zendesk has never had any layoffs in any team or department or region in the last 6 years since I've been here.
according to your friend, it does happen. What's this post about then?
Maybe performance reasons ? I don't know the whole story
What's your friend's name? We can check
