I haven’t heard about how it all went down, nor the extent for people of our community, but if you’re affected by the Amazon layoffs, I’m so sorry and angry. As a former Amazonian, there’s no sugarcoating this—14,000 people just had their lives upended right before the holidays, and calling it an “efficiency gain” doesn’t make it hurt less. You didn’t fail. The system failed you. Amazon made record profits and chose to convert your salaries into something else. That’s a business decision, not a referendum on your talent. What you can do right now: - Before you sign anything, wait for at least a week. If you feel you need a lawyer to review your severance (if any) the $300-500 is worth every penny - File for unemployment TODAY - Designers, scrub and archive your best before you lose access - Go ahead and light up “Open to Work”. There’s zero stigma in late 2025 The job market is weird and stupid but navigable. Tech unemployment is 2.9%. Companies are hiring, just not always where you’d expect. Healthcare, fintech, government, climate tech all need what you know how to do. Remember, all companies are tech companies now, tap into what interests you. If it’s beekeeping, bias for action the hell out of it. Your experience at Amazon matters. Your skills are valuable. And you will emerge somewhere that actually values stability over quarterly narratives. You’re all cats who land on their feet, we just wish some companies would stop throwing cats. If you need a referral, a resume review, or just someone to talk to—my DMs are open. We take care of our own.
