Re:Gitlab to lay off 7% of staff by yevpats on Thursday February 09, 2023 @11:27AM (#34726472)
It's just the first cut (for all companies). You can't do 50% right away as you don't know what will happen, so you need to do in steps. If they were just 7% over hired then they could just do attrition + a bit tougher perf reviews, or close a few teams over the course of a year but there is high chance for all companies they are not 10% or 7% or 15% over hired but 50%

really? a high chance for ALL companies that they are 50% overhired? based on what do you make this call? apart from doom pessimism.
