Ouch. The timing is really rough for H1B visa holders. With Thanksgiving and then the end of year holidays coming up, it effectively burns half the 60 day period to find a new job. That’s brutal.


I mean if I were working at Twitter, and on H1B (at the mercy of the US Gov), I would have started my job hunt and jumped off the moment all this drama with Elon started. So, I don't think anyone smart would be _starting_ their job hunt now..


Isn't TikTok getting those people hard?

btw. what happens if you start your own company?


I assume the severance package comes with some strings attached to it. Like boot working for a competitor for a limited time.


At least in California, non competes aren’t enforceable.


Truth. People in that situation would likely be in a mad scramble.
