Ten years ago working in Tech was all the rage. Now, you’re probs among the 180k+ laid off in the industry. From my perspective as someone who has been gainfully employed as well as unemployed multiple times in my career, working in tech doesn’t really live up to the hype associated with it. The massive layoffs aren’t surprising, and hopefully this shifts the elitism and “dream job” mentality associated with the industry, since you can love what you do but you can’t take any job with you 6 feet under.
