[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in IT as a government contractor and have seen exactly 0 layoffs. The people who are being laid off are probably over paid. Fact is, I am constantly trying to hire folks and there’s no one applying.[/quote]
I am laid off and looking for a job (Ex-FAANG). Can you please share the link to the job opening and I'll apply. Appreciate your timely help[/quote]

Will you accept a job making $150k?[/quote]
see.. that's part of the problem.

I work with FAANG company. There were a lot of layoffs. I've looked around, too, but the pay is lower than what I am getting now, so I'm going to stay put.

Also part of the problem, some of you hiring managers have ridiculous requirements for the pay. You want years of experience in all kinds of areas, certification in xyz, but for little pay.[/quote]

What a FAANG employee considers little pay is standard at smaller companies. FAANG can't employ everyone. The tough part is when the laid off FAANG employee learn what they are really worth [/quote]
