In this video, I explain why tech companies have laid off thousands of employees since 2022 - with 22,000 jobs lost in just the first three months of 2025. I break down the six key factors behind these mass layoffs, including AI-driven automation, post-pandemic workforce correction, return-to-office mandates, changing funding environments, organizational restructuring, and slowing demand.
More importantly, I share my personal experience of having to lay off 80 people and the emotional toll it takes. Whether you've been laid off, know someone who has, or are worried about your job security, I provide practical advice on how to prepare for potential layoffs and turn this career crisis into an opportunity for growth. The most valuable career reflection often happens when we're forced to pause - but you don't need to wait for a layoff to reassess your path.
