@Knoebel As this type of news is extremely exhausting lately, is it possible to work with hashtags here?
I guess especially on the Fediverse it would help you reach more people. But just the Hashtag #Layoffs or #GamingLayoffs would help to filter out depressing news.
I do wish I could tell recruiters that I’ll never apply to a company that reports record profits and also lays people off.
Like why are we wasting each others time talking about corporate mottos and exciting projects? Your leadership treats people like disposable cups. That’s all I need to know.

#Tesla#SiliconValley#LayOffs: "The Supercharger team did something incredible: build the only successful and liked fast-charging network in North America, which is critical to EV adoption.
Firing the entire team because the head was pushing back on the number of layoffs is ridiculous, especially if the plan is still to grow the network. Tesla needs to grow the network since it is currently onboarding other automakers on it. Even if Tesla sees its own sales slowing down, the Supercharger network will need a capacity increase.
Everyone I talked to at Tesla says that it is a complete mess. Contractors for most ongoing Supercharger projects lost their point of contact at Tesla. Again, many suspect Tesla will try to rehire some of the workers fired.
Tesla has hiring inefficiencies leading to layoffs and layoffs inefficiencies leading to new hires.
Barely two weeks have passed since Tesla initiated layoffs for at least 14,000 staff, and the company is now reportedly laying off hundreds more — including senior executives and the majority of its Supercharging team. But that may not be the end of it.
In an email sent to executives last night, Elon Musk said he wanted Tesla to be “absolutely hard core” about the cuts, stating even staff working underneath executives who “don’t obviously pass the excellent, necessary and trustworthy test” would also be out of a job. Here’s more from @theverge.
Is this for real? Did Elon just lay off #Tesla’s entire Supercharger business division?
“Rebecca Tinucci, senior director of the electric vehicle maker's Supercharger business, and Daniel Ho, head of the new vehicles program, will leave on Tuesday morning, the report said.
Musk also plans to dismiss everyone working for Tinucci and Ho, including the roughly 500 employees who work in the Supercharger group, The Information said. It was not clear how many employees worked for Ho.”
The Supercharger system is probably Tesla’s most beloved and successful product. What is going on?
“Musk lays off Tesla senior executives in fresh job cuts, The Information reports”
Her Interactive is about to release a banger, on 7th of May! 🤯 After temporary fall from the most unfortunate entry, they rise from their knees and fly very high. Welcome 34th game in the series:
It's a HUGE upgrade, when you compare these cinematics with other ND visual novels. Can't wait to get a feel of the gameplay that they, most likely, improved in accordance to general feedback as well.
There is so much to do in and explore new locations: in 3D, no less! Essentially, you can have a ride to Prague as the detective Nancy Drew in this game and play brain crackers, haha. :blobcattea:
Despite me being positive about #ND34, the newest entry for #NancyDrew videogame series, there is a merit in finding how we've got here in the first place and if #HerInteractive is a trustworthy studio.
Right of the gate, we see the drastic difference in how previous, #ND33 game performed after successful 32 inclusions... It's darn #MID, if you ask me. :thisIsFine: So, it was being developed after the big #layoff in Her, where most positions got bestowed on a new crew. Only that it was going hand-in-hand with new CEO's delusion of a #passion mobile project. Add here a camp of the #fanbase which insists on a regular ND release schedule, #hustle culture, and you have a case of rushed development, #crunch and leaving everyone with a subpar ND game. If anything, I guess old crew was spared nerve cells in expense of new blood being under equally subpar direction - lucky to be fired, unlucky to be hired? Oof.
Boom.
Bust.
“#Peloton’s #CEO Barry McCarthy is stepping down after announcing yet another round of #layoffs, this time affecting about 15 percent of its remaining workforce, or roughly 400 global team members. It’s the fifth round of #layoffs to hit the pandemic darling and comes after McCarthy said on its Q1 2023 earnings call that the company was done with #layoffs and that the ‘ship was turning’”

I have a strong feeling that I'll be let go from my job today due to potential layoffs. Folks please let me know if you have relevant Software Engineering positions for me.
