Snap Layoffs - Anyone Else Caught in the Latest Wave?

Just saw the news about Snap cutting another chunk of their workforce. Feels like this is becoming the new normal in tech. Anyone here affected by this recent round? Trying to get a sense of the scale and which teams took the biggest hit. My first thought was 'here we go again,' but then I started wondering what the actual business reasons are this time. Is it truly about restructuring for new tech, or just cost-cutting disguised as something else? Always feels a bit hollow when they talk about 'strategic realignment' right after letting people go. Hoping for some transparency from those who might know more, or just commiseration from others in the same boat. What's the vibe internally?

Yeah, it's a rough time. Seeing these announcements definitely sparks concern. It's hard not to speculate about the underlying strategy when layoffs become so frequent. I'm curious if this is a pivot towards different product focuses or a more aggressive push for profitability. Definitely hoping everyone lands on their feet quickly.

The constant news of layoffs across big tech is disheartening. It makes you question the long-term stability and whether these moves are truly strategic or reactive to market pressures. I'm interested to hear more about the specific areas impacted and if there's a clear rationale being communicated beyond general 'restructuring.' It's a tough environment for sure.
