There’s tons of very profitable companies hiring right now - the “top-name” companies doing layoffs were all “growth-first, profit-never” types. We’re not in an industry-wide downturn and there’s a hell of a lot more out there than FAANG or MANGA or whatever we’re calling it now.

Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Amazon have made an absolute shitload of money. They are among the most profitable companies in the history of humanity. Definitely not "profit-never."
