From UPS to Citigroup to Meta, major companies are cutting jobs while still making billions. This video breaks down what’s really driving layoffs, why even high performers aren’t safe, and what it means for your future.
If it feels like job security is disappearing… you’re not wrong.

Most people don’t have a clear view of where their money is actually going.

How do you currently track your finances?

People are missing it. They are forcing everyone into gig work. If you hire "Fractional" employees, you don't have to pay for healthcare, sick days or PTO and unemployment.

If we can't count on job security, why would anybody want to plant roots and buy a home?

Theres a special place in hell for greedy CEOs who destroy peoples lives in order to line their pockets.

Nobody at your job is your friend. They want your work, not you. They don’t actually care about you, no matter what they say. At the end of the day, it’s about your productivity. And if a company starts calling itself a “family,” that’s a huge red flag for me.

Loyalty ended 30 years ago. Nobody should expect job security

First Lady 4 layoffs in two years? She must be damn good at finding jobs. It usually takes many months to even get through all the interviews.

AI should replace CEOs too

Slash your workforce. We’ll slash our subscriptions.

It should not be normal to work 64 hours a week just to live paycheck to paycheck.

This is about profit, not AI

The real villain at the moment are the firms getting paid by the govt to provide the statistics. Look up how they determine those job numbers, it is shocking. Literally a survey to about 140k random companies and 70k households. They aren't even transparent on how many responses there are.

I refuse to have children in this economy. They won’t use my seed as cheap labor.

I just got laid off in blue collar this week.... I will find another job. But it does seem pay is going down like you said.

I'm an HVAC and FA technician foreman, taught it for 8 years too, have a M.Ed and BA. Got laid off last month, always being asked to work for other companies, but there's no work. I was 116 at the hall for dispatch. In 4 weeks I'm now 115. No calls for foremen, or even first year techs or apprentices. Non-union and other companies in the industry aren't hiring or don't offer healthcare which is why I chose this profession. For my kids. Been through 4-5 careers now at 41, I'M DONE WITH THIS RIGGED SYSTEM!!

When a person has any kind of emotion, why is the first instinct to turn on TikTok and record it?!

@ask_why000 6 months ago

People can't have it both ways: Either companies fired and blamed AI and might need to hire back OR the companies fired because they over hired but still blamed AI - and have zero need to hire back - because they have right sized their staffing.

The more white-collar jobs are lost, the worse product quality becomes. Those jobs aren't unnecessary, they're very necessary for a well-functioning and likeable product.

And don't forget when you try and protect yourself from this gaslighting by having a resume out and always having something in the works, these companies probably will fire you for being disloyal 🤣
