- cortesoft 7y agoWhat? Big firms lay off people all the time.
- kabacha 7y agoIt has nothing to do with being "big firm" - I didn't say that. I said Linkedin as a product is way too big, being pretty much a monopoly on work-social media and with that sort of power they aren't facing any layoffs because of a dip in economy.

- sarabande 7y agoYou didn't say any of that in your original comment. Hence it's reasonable for your parent commenter to be confused, and reasonable for you to have explained what you meant.
- hkmurakami 7y agoIf that were true (even within just tech) Cisco would never do layoffs.
- kabacha 7y agoCisco doesn't have a monopoly product. Do you expect Facebook to lay off people that are working on Facebook.com too?
- fiblye 7y agoThey very likely will reach a point someday where they will lay off a good number of people. They can't keep growing forever, and if they reach a point of stagnation, they'll get rid of some people to save on costs or to reallocate funds to grow a different division. Loads of big companies do this, monopoly or not.
