Just a reminder about the last MSFT buyouts (Blind)

• ukno.ukno (Microsoft): So if I were to extrapolate sentiment in my circle, this buyout would make H1B to Americans ratio even more pronounced. H1Bs will hold on to their job (if you know about the market you know), while americans will happily take the buyout and leave. DEI has to come back to restore the ratio lol
• Mindi7 (Cargill): Hope they prioritize US citizens over H1B visa holders
• ChuchaAi (Adobe): These layoffs may just be the beginning, especially for white-collar jobs. AI is making human labor less valuable while corporate profits keep climbing. The real question is: are we heading toward a future where wealth and power are concentrated in the hands of a few, while the rest of us become increasingly replaceable? So much for Global Cooperation.

Rejected anthropic and openAI, stay at Meta (Blind)

• MarkTikTok (ByteDance): This prediction is not correct, I work at OpenAI and am so rich
• 1more🦺 (Meta): Pass the copium pls
• W3F3G567s (ex-Pinterest): All US enterprises dying to adopt chinese models

AI job displacements, came with no warning! (Blind)

• uNNo45 (Capital One): Not sure how the economy survives this. Every sector is going to be impacted
• Jefry (Salesforce): > who is taking responsibility for the people being replaced?
  
  You take responsibility for yourself. Your employer isn’t your mom.
• petersgost (Lucid Motors): Oh the delicious irony. All the programmers making top whack programming LLMs thinking taxi drivers are on borrowed time and then being the first on the scrap heap.

Why are we doing this AI thing to ourselves? (Blind)

• aziemsjdns (Google): Don’t buy products from companies that use AI
  Don’t be friends with people who use AI
  Don’t hire candidates who use AI
  Don’t live in a jurisdiction where tax dollars go to AI
  If your spouse uses AI, get a divorce
• ⭕️ingBack (Microsoft): If we don’t China will win
• Aaron.B (NVIDIA): The genie can’t be put back in the bottle.

Walmart seems dead, xAI ref pls (Blind)

• OQbl83 (Walmart): Stay away from Walmart! The leadership is toxic, no goals; re-implementing ( not event reinventing) existing stuff; it is always catchup with Amazon. No real innovation
• know_zero (Walmart): Definitely not game changing work. However like most companies it’s varies by team and org. You can coast in most teams.. maybe excluding marketplace org. The PIP and disciplinary groups are being oversold here. It’s 5% and is similar to many companies. Only Walmart started enforcing only over the past couple of years.
  It’s still a great place if you need a stable company and a company not enforcing 5days back to work. Skip if you need to be surrounded by great people from day1. You may still be able to find such a team internally if you choose Walmart and team hop after 18months.
• czart (Walmart): Yeah it’s a desi 3slug fest on the regular here tbh.
  
  Currently 40% are on ‘disciplinary action’ .
  
  Imagine as an adult being told by your employer they need to discipline you.
