From people I've talked to the job market in parts of the tech industry still seems to be red hot. Everyone is having trouble hiring.
- baq 4y agoyou can always say that. the problem is, this happens slowly, then suddenly all at once. if it takes 6-8 months to get a new job, it might be in the middle of total hiring freeze everywhere.
- Spartan-S63 4y agoThe tech sector still seems red hot, but the pivot from revenue growth at any cost to margin-focused growth is what's squeezing a lot of B2C companies. I think if you're a startup or late stage private company in B2B, you're probably doing alright if you were cautious and conservative in growing your costs. If you look at a lot of the recent layoffs, most are in tech companies doing B2C rather than B2B.
- baq 4y agoB2C reducing expenses means B2B reducing expenses, just on a lag. duration of that lag is anybody's guess; mine is 3+-1 quarter depending on purchasing cycles and license renewals.
