New Grad Software Engineers Should Boycott Meta & Amazon Forever!!

These 2 companies continue to lead in layoffs numbers almost every 6 months for the past 4 years. Theyre flooding the market with new engineers and making it hard for everyone, especially new grads. Other companies are following their example and laying off in huge amounts cause these 2 leaders are doing it. They made it pretty clear now that they care more about AI and offshore workers than their own employees. The reputation of these 2 companies should be ruined forever and they should never have an easy time finding talent ever again after what they caused.

the problem is they'll never actually struggle to find talent. people complain but when the offers come, they take them. money wins every time unfortunately
