I was laid off yesterday.
My leader said: “This has nothing to do with your performance. This decision was not made lightly.”
Yet its so hard to think it’s not based on my performance. They kept people who had less tenure and experience than me (but paid the same)
I asked 100x over my course of tenure there to give me more exposure, to include me in more meetings, to give me more context. From the start, I felt left out. I was set up to fail and not given the opportunity to grow. They often took credit for the things that I BUILT.
Live and learn I guess.
There is a discussion about Amazon doing its biggest layoff ever across every division.
Many US product teams are also being transferred to Canada
