Call it ironic, but just three days before starting his new position at amazon, a former google software engineer was informed by the business that his job offer had been rejected. Tianyi Gao, a SWE (software engineer) at the organisation, shared his ordeal on LinkedIn. "My manager gave me a support-check-in project, so I accepted an offer from amazon as a fallback. Unfortunately, just three workdays before my first day, I learned that the amazon offer had been rescinded after my resignation had been accepted "Gao wrote.


"I failed to either prolong the procedure or retract my resignation. My last day at google is today. I have 60 days to find a new work as an H1-B visa holder "He bemoaned. Gao is one of hundreds of H1-B visa holders who have lost their jobs at Meta, Twitter, amazon, Salesforce, and other such firms and are currently attempting to find employment so they can continue to hold work visas in the US. At least 853 computer businesses worldwide have fired nearly 137,492 workers as a result of the global financial crisis, and the number is steadily rising amid concerns about a coming recession.

Since the start of Covid-19, 1,388 tech companies have let go a total of 233,483 employees, according to statistics from layoffs.fyi, a crowdsourced database of tech layoffs, but 2022 has been the worst for the sector. More than 73,000 employees of US internet companies, including Meta, Twitter, Salesforce, Netflix, Cisco, Roku, and others, have been laid off as of mid-November.
