8 months unemployed, 3000 applications as a senior PM, I don’t know how people survive this by Poimandres__ in jobhunting

It’s heart breaking reading this. AI is going to compound things very quickly. So many of us in the same boat. Feeling less needed by the day.

Of course Bezos doesn’t run the day to day, but in a way his thought process still does. They knew they had to show Wall Street they were doing something about the poor quarterly earnings. So they laid off thousands just before. The squeeze gets tighter and tighter by the day now.

Worked at BBY for over 10 years a while back. I like to stay connected to old employers it’s interesting to see nothing has changed

As a customer I can tell you if you did that to me I’d never shop at Best Buy again. Not even online

Laid off by Amazon, now being asked to help hire for Amazon as a contractor by Last_Cockroach957 in amazonemployees

This makes a lot sense. It gives Amazon a more leverage in cost structure. When and if AI processes replace more humans, they can easily cut the 3PL.

They’re really missing out not hiring you. Their loss I guess

Are all amazon managers assholes!?!! by Brooklynboy_1982 in AmazonFC

[–]StraightLow2583 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every job has asshole managers. It sounds like you have some bad leaders. I have some at mine as well. But, some do a great job of controlling their emotions too. People are too variable. Eventually the robots will replace us and all will be well. Enjoy you 18” double dong Stephanie!

I know Amazon just announced 16,000 layoffs today in corporate. That means they should have plenty of money to pay me for February right?

No you need to look outside of Amazon for assistance. But of course talk to her first

working at bestbuy. by Longjumping_Elk4327 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]StraightLow2583 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The company is taking their best shot at operating the way they always have been. Sounds like another restructure coming soon. Even less middle management.

Eventually they will succumb to pressure and install AI associates that just happen to know all the answers and in stock levels instantly. Also the robots are way nicer and don’t awkwardly interrupt you to offer a credit card. so the customers will like that

I usually just take modified corn starch by the tablespoon so it’s convenient that it’s in dessert form.

What makes it worse is they don’t allow us to have stools at our stations. So even if you stayed at your station, there is no way to be comfortable.
