Just saw the WARN filing for the February 20th round—looks like another 80 people got the axe in California. It’s starting to feel like death by a thousand cuts at this point. I keep hearing 'streamlining' in the town halls, but the workload hasn't gone down for those of us still left holding the bag. Is this it for the quarter, or are we just waiting for the next shoe to drop? I’m genuinely concerned about what’s left of the engineering teams. If you’re affected, I’m sorry. This place used to have some stability, but it feels like the current leadership is just slashing headcount to juice the numbers before the next earnings call. Stay safe out there.

I was in the office when the news broke today, and the vibe is just heavy. Everyone is looking over their shoulders instead of focusing on their actual projects. It feels like leadership is obsessed with cutting headcount to keep the numbers pretty for Wall Street, but they’re gutting the institutional knowledge we actually need to function. If you’re still here, keep your resume updated and start networking. This isn't the same company we signed up for five years ago.

It is exhausting to keep hearing the word 'streamlining' every time they drop a new round of layoffs. We are losing talented people who actually know how to run these systems, and the people staying are just being handed double the work with zero extra support. At this point, it’s not even about performance anymore; it’s just a numbers game. Take care of yourselves and reach out to the folks who were let go if you can—they’re going to need the support.
