US based but laying off only US?
Other than the 85 roles in Ireland that were announced to the media, it appears that all the layoffs have been US based employees. Seems this US based company prefers to pay the new CEO double what Dan was making at the expense of its US... — read more

Trying to move from PayPal Engineering to Professional Services due to layoffs
I am trying to move into Global Professional Services as layoffs have been pretty common in Engineering and Product. Seems GMS is a good place to segue if you are in the level 25 and below. As there are many 26, 27, 28 level employees actually not... — read more
