☆ Making a TikTok layoff video 'is insanely risky for future job prospects' says ex-Google recruiter
  + stars: | 2024-04-09 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
On Jan. 9, TikToker Brittany Pietsch posted a video of her layoff from tech company Cloudflare. The video went viral, with various outlets weighing in both on how the company handled the layoff and Pietsch's choice to post it at all. "I documented my layoff because at that point I was already very active on TikTok," she tells Make It. "I think that this is insanely risky for future job prospects," says Nolan Church, former Google recruiter and current CEO of salary data company FairComp. You could still make a measured, professional post in that moment, but it would be just as easy to get emotional.

☆ A better way to handle layoffs
  + stars: | 2024-02-20 | by ( Aki Ito | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +11 min
Out of everything that happens in the workplace, nothing underscores the harshly transactional nature of employment more than the way companies terminate their employees. To be sure, there are times when layoffs are necessary for the health — and even survival — of a company. In other words, the pitiless and coldhearted way businesses handle dismissals isn't just destructive to those who get dismissed. Is there a better way to handle layoffs? For starters, Herd says, managers should look the employees they're dismissing in the eye, rather than reading from a script.

Read previewThe youngest generation at work have found a new way to vent their frustrations at working in corporate America: filming themselves getting laid off or fired, and posting it on social media. "From the Gen Z perspective, this woman feels like a hero," Schawbel said about Pietsch. She got followers, she got attention, because of the algorithm and the echo chamber that surrounds her on social media, and on TikTok especially." Social media fame, likes, followers, and comments might create a facade of social connection for some lonely Gen Zers. A lot of recruiters would be wary of hiring someone like that because company’s "don’t want to be the next victim" of a social media rant.
