&gt; Where is this sourced from? - We rely on a combination of verified sources at companies, submissions&#x2F;tips, tech blogs, as well as public lists.<p>If I am reading this right, some (most?) of these people might not even know they are listed on this site? I am assuming all of the info is already available since linked in profile is required, but this is still a bit creepy.

Great tool if you&#x27;re laid off and your name is first in the list according to whatever arbitrary sorting function is being used here.

I&#x27;m more interested in tracking the companies that have laid off (and don&#x27;t have an ability to help hire individuals), so I&#x27;m just watching <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;layoffs.fyi&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;layoffs.fyi&#x2F;</a> instead of this page. That is more geared to following the trends in layoffs. If anyone knows other compilations I&#x27;d be interested to know!

Could we also have a list of all the crappy engineers laid off? :-)

There&#x27;s a lot of companies that won&#x27;t come out of this, but some will, and they&#x27;ll be in the position of having to hire again.<p>I&#x27;m sure that a few companies may have tried some way to keep their furloughed employees &quot;close to the back door,&quot; so they can get them back, when things open up, but a lot of companies will be in the position of having to start over from scratch.<p>I saw an ad for a &quot;Senior React Native&quot; developer, in the SF area, for $25,000 -&gt; $80,000.<p>Oof. Different world, indeed.

I get why it uses LinkedIn, but that&#x27;s not something that represents my actual CV or skill level. Most of the stuff I&#x27;ve done I don&#x27;t really know (thanks to their abysmal and dark-pattern-based UI) how to put it on there in the first place.

It&#x27;s not a list of &quot;great&quot; engineers. It&#x27;s just a list of engineers. Anyone can add themself to the list.

Saw a bunch of Amazon layoffs. I know they regularly hire and fire people, but this seems like a really shitty time to do that to people.

Is there a list of companies that are still hiring (and haven&#x27;t hugely slowed down hiring like Google?).

How very convenient that you can blacklist companies like Uber with a simple click of a checkbox.

We&#x27;re still hiring! I passed this link off to our head of talent acquisition.
