This forum seems swarming with people with an axe to grind against SV employees of late. As far as I can tell some people think they are well informed on the matter purely from following people on TikTok. Such as the “they only work 6 hours a week” crowd.

Not just that, the comments on these layoff posts seem to put engineering staff on some "un-fireable" pedestal but think of PMs, Sales and Marketing, Admin people as eternally expendable.
