I didn't know about any layoffs as I don't really watch them, but am not surprised. Lots of overlap. I did check their careers page just now and there's hardly any tech roles in there so it does track.

Am still annoyed about the edict to return to the office, despite the data, when some people like myself had moved 200+ miles during lockdown. Extremely shitty behaviour, which is now being emulated by many other companies.

I left pretty soon after lockdowns, the writing was on the wall for me. Both on the flexibility, and the direction. It was also around the time the CEO announced he didn't want to be a company paying top market rates for top people.

Given the contract I had stated on-site, I found a fully remote role offering 30k more.

The stock price seems to have settled in the past year but I still think it's overvalued. They're slower than ever, and talent seems to be draining slowly.
