Twitter started an avalanche. So obvious.
- bombcar 4y agoThese tech company layoffs were already in full-swing before Twitter's hit. https://tech.co/news/tech-companies-layoffs https://tech.co/news/tech-companies-layoffs according to this Better.com started all the way back in 2021 with a "layoff via Zoom call" which I remember people complaining about. At least these are better.
- playoff_burner 4y agoNot in fintech. The big Stripe layoff (14%) was before Twitter. I think Twitter gets a lot more credit than it deserves for the layoff wave, given that companies had already put effort into modeling the ROI of their labor. The idea that you could do significant workforce reduction and not have the product completely collapse overnight isn't new: it's obvious.
