Visa's Q3 layoffs and the visa holder situation
2E
0x2e8f…59bcSo, the news about ~70 layoffs in Bellevue just dropped. Seeing reports from August 1st. Curious to hear from anyone directly affected or who knows people impacted. More importantly, has anyone seen any patterns in terms of departments or roles? With the ongoing conversations around H-1B visas and tech layoffs (saw some interesting threads on HN about this lately), I'm wondering how this specifically impacts visa holders at Visa. Are there specific support systems in place for them, or is it the standard employer-dependent situation? Seems like a tough spot to be in, especially if you've put down roots here. Any insights or experiences would be appreciated, trying to understand the broader implications here.
