...from Twitter to CIA/DHS/FBI/NSA contracts...
 Attached File“Many talented people have been impacted by layoffs in the past few months and with the holidays approaching, this is a tough time to be without work,” John Heyliger, Lockheed Martin’s vice president of talent acquisition, wrote on LinkedIn. “If you, or someone you know, has found themselves unexpectedly seeking new opportunities, my team and I are here to connect.” https://www.nextgov.com/emerging-tech/2022/11/will-tech-layoffs-finally-help-defense-firms-get-engineers-they-seek/380118/ |

If you think there isnt great talent at Twitter, you're wrong. Most of them were there because they liked the benefits and work/life balance. Once thats gone, they dont have a reason to stay.

That's the truth of it, also factor in the potential new talent that might have either been kept out or just stayed away on their own due to the toxic environment at twitter for some. |

If you think shitbirds/people with casual drug use history aren't capable of getting or maintaining clearances, you haven't served long enough as military or DOD civilian personnel. I know people who smoked weed in school and got jobs at places like Booz Allen Hamilton, or were even on track to commissioning through ROTC.
Also you don't get piss tested working for beltway bandits, at least not for desk type work. Maybe handling vehicles or hazmat, sure, but I've never seen that in my career at companies supporting the DOD. |

How anyone expected anything other than this I'll never know. Just because someone on TV tells you what you want to hear so you can stick your head back in the sand and pretend everything is fine or good I'll never understand.
It was obvious that woke companies would love virtue signaling this. It was obvious their talent crushing dissent was wanted. They'll do their jobs because they are truly indoctrinated and love nothing more than being paid for pushing their agendas. These places will gladly hire shitty workers on top of everything because they are loyal to the cause. |

It's kind of interesting watching finance, gov, and consumer facing companies trying to pick the scraps from the tech layoffs. Frankly, with the way it works with the West Coast States, none of these folks are going to do shit until their unemployment is up. No point in taking a haircut |
