They had big poster on San jose office titled "We are Hiring" . I joined the company three months ago, gave hackerrank test, onsite interview, had worst time in the team, senior didnt want to help. And manager expected to solve complex OS problem within first week.
And after three months they started laying off, and i was i guess the first person, that they let go. The reason being "We no longer need this position in the team", i was like i just joined three months back, how cant you predict the visibility of role in three months.
I am on H1b visa, i emailed my manager asking her to push HR, so that they can keep me on payroll for like 1-2 months that way i will get like 3-4 months extension, with holiday season approaching, i need this time to get new job. This is what she replied "Dont contact me; contact HR people for your questions".
HR replied after 4 days saying that they cant keep me on payroll. When i joined they made all false promises, this is employee oriented comapny blah blah.....but when the time came they showed the real color.
