Times can be tough, for people collectively and/or individually. But at the end of the day, we’re not machines. Let’s bring back more humanity to the capital-driven workplace
Friendly reminder to check in with your colleagues, especially when budgets are tight and resources are limited. When one person’s mental health is compromised, it puts them and the company at risk of burnout and overall performance
@bandanjot Big label brands don’t guarantee anything. Pay attention to macroeconomic trends. If your industry is in peril, consider looking to jump ship before it starts to sink.

To all my fellow tech workers impacted by the mass layoffs, take this time to reflect on what you want next from your career. Accept interview requests for roles you might not have otherwise considered. Your next move may surprise you for the better.
Sincerely,
A PM in Creative
