Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

Relocating for a job doesn’t make sense anymore

You uproot your whole family, spend a fortune to move, lose your social network, only to probably lose the job soon after anyway. In 2025, there's no care for employees or their wellbeing. No one’s nurturing human capital anymore. We're all disposable, losing our jobs on a whim. Effort, time with a company, skills, contribution, performance—none of it matters anymore. Relocating is just too much of a gamble.

Yes - but they won’t pay you to move back.

I know two people who relocated from New England to Texas for a major tech company back in the 90s. Within two years both employees got laid off. It is not worth it.

If you're valuable, they will pay to move you.

I’ve been in the Wash. DC area for the past 46 years of my working life and I haven’t had any difficulty working for and finding jobs at non-government contracting company’s. In fact I have worked at some bleeding edge technology company’s. Choose the area you live in wisely
