Tech Industry Layoffs Prompt Workers to Reconsider 'Dream Job' Status at Google, Amazon, and Microsoft =============== #fd36e319 ver:0.26 Tech industry layoffs are on the rise, with over 34,000 job cuts in January alone. Layoffs have hit major companies like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, prompting workers to reconsider their "dream job" status. The job market is becoming more competitive, with lower salaries and demanding qualifications. Former tech workers have formed support communities like Xoogler, while others are exploring new career paths outside of tech. The instability caused by layoffs has eroded the appeal of the industry, leading to a drop in job applications. Despite this, in-office salaries are surging, reflecting the demand for physical presence. Layoff challenges include illegal severance agreements and difficulties for visa holders. The job hunt is tough, but job seeker confidence is rising. #TechLayoffs #JobMarket #CareerTransition... #newstr #TechIndustry #JobLosses #Layoffs #Employment #DreamJob https://here.news/story/fd36e319?ver=0.26
