1,300 Jobs Gone. Because AI Can Now Do It Faster.
Glassdoor and Indeed just laid off 1,300 people yes, the same platforms that help people find jobs are now letting go of their own. Why? cz their parent company is going all-in on AI to “streamline” hiring. Most of these layoffs hit R&D, HR, and sustainability teams in the US. Even glassdoor’s CEO is stepping down. The plan now is to merge glassdoor into Indeed and let AI take over a big chunk of the backend work. Their CEO literally said “AI is changing the world, and we need to move faster and fix what’s broken. Today, about one-third of their code is written by AI. Soon, that could be 50%. And they’re not alone Microsoft, Google, Amazon… all are cutting jobs while letting AI do more of the work. Just last week, Intel cut 4,000 jobs, Microsoft let go of 6,000 CrowdStrike laid off 5% of its staff And all of this, even when profits were up. Scary, isn’t it?

Dislikes

Work-life balance can be a real challenge, hobbies often take a back seat. Promotions follow a strict process and usually take 2–4 years. Amazon also uses a bell curve for performance reviews, which means some employees may end up on a PIP even if they're doing fine. Plus, the systems and processes can feel overly complex and overwhelming at times.
