It’s a dark time to be a tech worker right now::Nearly 300,000 tech employees have been laid off since last year, data shows.

There’s no evidence that the layoffs at these firms are actually tech workers. Tons of other positions exist at these companies, like managers, sales, marketing, support staff.
My money is on administrative/clerical. This is the easiest to automate.
What on earth do you mean no evidence? I mean just check layoffs.fyi which specifically tracks this.
I’m trying to find where on the site where it tracks the type of employees laid off but it doesn’t seem to track that at all?
You don’t know what you’re talking about. I personally know multiple devs who were laid off from my company. These companies don’t give a shit about your skills anymore, they’re purely looking at how much money you cost them.
Devs are getting laid off, but he actually does have a point that in the case of several of the biggest companies, the hardest hit were middle management, not devs.
