Big Tech wants to bring back some of the workers it laid off. The decision might come down to how a company handled the layoffs.

    Because this was intended to reduce salaries. And many of those people who were laid off have been unemployed since and are likely desperate for a paycheck again.

    You’ll see these folks easily take a 50 to 100k cut on TC. (granted many are making 300k+ already)

        I know some people in FAANG and spend a lot of time on Blind.

        I believe the “correct” term now is “MAAAN”?

      On the flip side, there’s also the issue of their generous severance packages. Slight TC drop but for a lot of time they got to just sit and wait things out.

      I don’t want to diminish the stress though, the stress of not knowing what’s next is huge, and in my opinion should be accounted for in the TC to return.
