Tests tend to exist so that you can be rejected. Let's not kid ourselves - most of the time people hire based on feelings; and not only about you but also about how they feel at that specific moment.

Increased shareholder pressure. Chance to reset salaries within the company without losing out much on the market (doing layoffs in a similar time frame with others will pretty much leave you with options when you all start hiring again) Sh

Turkish did that. In my childhood bread was 200.000 liras for example. About a decade ago they renominated it. "New Turkish Lira" was born, where 1.000.000 Old Lira = 1 Lira. So as another comment has mentioned, probably that woul

The way the article is written is a reorganisation almost, normally you are supposed to let your workers move into other roles, if they are willing. Not the same as reduction in force.

End goal seems to be the eradication of newly emerging middle class, and to tilt the scale to workers' disadvantage. Huzzah. /s

Your argument is flawed. Reactionary firing tends to be inefficient, but makes shareholders happy on the short term. Should a company prioritise shareholder happiness over efficiency is the real question here. Their losses don’t originate f

It has value in terms of being an example of how old these institutions are, not to mention how trustworthy and with lasting power they are. Administrative effort + 10 bucks is _nothing_ compared to that.

Bad take regarding black mark. Fintech and swinging for the fences is not a bad thing per se. As long as you aren’t an executive for a scam or something; I have never seen in my career experience being treated as a bad thing. Might perhaps

Just dumping my thoughts on the topic in general; H1B is quite problematic in its design for sure, a sensible approach would be to determine the need for a certain job group / skill set and give people relatively long residence permits

In other words, water is wet. Virtually all companies are struggling with the crisis. A ton of them are going under. It is only logical tech has a similar issue. More than likely we'll end up seeing a reallocation of engineers across d

Make sure to talk to your kid about everything all the time. Even stuff they may not get even when they are babies. More exposure to different experiences and even just different things you say the better their chances for cognitive develop

It is an ecosystem by this point which does store value as things stand. That is different than MySQL. Once it matures enough to merge with the “real world” so to speak possibilities are exciting. For this to happen a lot of regulation and

This is extremely pessimistic. Same comment could have been made ages ago about internet businesses as well. The issue is that there is significant amount of money in the space, relatively little regulation making it attractive to scammers.

Rings so true and close to my heart. I have been saying the exact same thing for a couple years by now. Very tiring as well - it is not like I can change the colour of my skin for god's sake.

Tech is much more integral to our lives than ever. I think what we might see instead is earning decreasing to a certain extent though. Non-FAANG type of companies still need plenty of tech; and they tend to pay decent enough.

Granted, we will all have trim the fat moment but I doubt the level of doom and gloom is warranted, as we are not in a "massive, massive tech bubble". If anything, tech hasn't penetrated enough into our lives yet. Most likely

This is a personal pet peeve of mine. Workers react to the environment they are in. Calling it a "graph algorithm / hot potato" is belittling, especially in the sense that most people who switch jobs; don't even want to

This is a ridiculous idea; if anything goes on to show how random hiring processes are imho. Check the contributions obviously but why flat out say "you joined a hackathon we don't like your kind here"?
