LAID OFF from my $250K Google Job - 5 HARSH Lessons
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- In this honest video, I am opening up about a topic I thought I never had to address - the sudden termination of my 8-year career in Google, and the harsh realities and painful lessons I have learnt since I was laid off.
As someone with over 14 years of experience in both the exciting but unpredictable world of tech and finance, I always expected layoffs to happen at some point in my career. And after seeing my past colleagues get laid off over the years, I had mentally prepared myself of the financial implications of a layoff (things like having an emergency fund, a backup career plan and sufficient savings for mortgage and other expenses)
So while I was fortunate enough to cushion the financial blow of this layoff from Google (in my previous video with many of you had liked), I didn’t expect my emotional and mental health to be impacted even more. We often think (and worry) primarily about how layoffs can impact our financial situation, but no one had warned us that we would also go through a roller coaster of emotions ranging from grief and loss, feeling guilty and blaming ourselves to experiencing anger with the unfairness of it all.
Another unpleasant (and sad) surprise was seeing how most of my work friends were initially not around to support me during such a tough time. It was almost like the moment I left Google, my entire 8 years there was erased and everyone just moved on without me. It was only after a while that I realized they either didn't know how to approach me or they themselves were also overwhelmed with their own layoff anxiety.
And it’s not all doom and gloom. On the positive side, I have learnt to be kind to myself and to others and also received tremendous support and kindness from friends and strangers I never thought would be there for me. I also realize that absolutely no one in the company enjoys doing layoffs and that they are just doing their job, so being angry and bitter would not help get back my job. Burning bridges and pointing accusing fingers also serve no purpose. Instead we are ultimately presented with the opportunity to showcase our kindness and maintain relationships despite this setback.
Lastly in this video, I also covered how finding your next job is going to suck. It is just so difficult to find a job in today’s tough economy when very few companies are actively hiring. I found myself panicking and just interviewing for any and every job out there, and soon I was burnt out and had wasted so much time and energy. So I eventually designed a 30/60/90 day job search framework to better strategize my job search and I have shared this with you in my video as well.
I was initially hesitant to share this experience so openly here on RUclips, but I believe it’s important to discuss the lowlights and tough times of our careers as well. And I hope this video can help anyone (especially more junior employees in the workforce) to better prepare for a layoff. And I hope this video also provides comfort for anyone going through a similar struggle and facing the same layoff anxiety.
So take a breath, this is probably the toughest situation you will ever face in your career. Take the time to be kind to yourself and then reflect on how being laid off could still be a positive chapter in your career and an opportunity for personal growth.
Here’s what I’ll be discussing:
0:00 Intro
0:25 It’s Not Your Fault
1:15 Layoffs Are Never Fair
2:28 CEOs Making Millions
3:01 Be Kind
4:08 Work Friends Won’t Be There For You
5:23 Have Friends Outside Work
6:00 Finding Your Next Job Sucks
7:21 Sometimes We Don’t Jump, We Get Pushed
Sometimes in life we don’t jump, we get pushed.
And as long as you continue to work hard and stay kind, beautiful things will always come your way.
Thank you for your support, and all the best in navigating in these uncertain times. And wish me luck in my next chapter as a RUclipsr sharing my stories here!

In my first week of work, our department”s senior partner took the new employees out to lunch. Someone asked what is one advice you can give us starting off?
He said, take care of yourself first. When it comes to the job world, everyone is expendable including himself. It’s just business. So if you’re going to work, work for yourself first. Company comes second. This means taking care of your long term personal career goals and finding ways to balance your value and professional desires the company can provide u. This means taking care of your health and mental being. And more.
15 years later, I still remember that lunch.
That senior partner sounded like a great person, and that lunch sounded like a blast.
Thanks for sharing your advice!
I'm an 85 year old retired aerospace engineer who worked both as a direct employee and as a contract engineer who essentially worked for himself. For what it's worth, I made a Whole Lot More Money as a contract engineer who was paid time and a half after 40 hours vs. when I was a salaried engineering mgr. Plus the tax code was and still is written to benefit an employer vs. an employee.
He's absolutely right.
@@travisbickle1455 yup valuable advice for me as a 22 year old at the time.
I have always lived my life as though I could be let go tomorrow. I never felt any type of security and always saved just in case of this scenario. I have been at the same company for almost 30 years now. I still feel as though they could let me go at any time.
"The only people that will remember all the late nights and weekends you put in at work are your wife and children" - from "A life engineered" dude.
Realest words
@@9to5MillionaireMindset realest? never seen that word.
Boy, that's the hard truth!
@@brightonchou1393 You saw it at least twice. First when you read his comment, second when you typed the word yourself in yours. Stop lying.
I regret the late nights and weekends for sure
My advice to anyone earning 250k. Live like you earn 125k and save the rest. On the day you get laid off feel good that you still have all that money from your high paying job to keep you going. Don’t be that person who goes from living 250k lifestyle to zero in one day and have to start worrying about paying bills and keeping a roof over your head.
Edit: I just watched one of your other videos and realised you did exactly this!
Live way less....honey...125k is above the National medium income!
Thank you for sharing very sensible and valuable financial advice, and yes I was very fortunate to have access to great teachers and financial content to build up so much buffer. (and thank you for spending even more of your precious time watching my other videos too!)
One year in a 250k job would last me 10 years. He must have worked many years, enough to retire 🤔
250k USD or SGD?
@@chuntong6290 When i wrote the comment I was thinking of USD but it’s the same concept in any currency. Live on less than you earn, save and invest for the future. I didn’t make this up, I borrowed the idea from others.
"Sometimes in life we don't jump, we get pushed!" - beautiful
It's sadly true, the most painful time is also when we learn the most. :/ I guess it's just part of being alive, pain drives us forward to be in a better future.
Pain is also the most effective teacher 😊
@@slimjimjimslim5923 I would argue that it is never "pain" in and of itself, but an array of factors that, when combined with that pain, can make all the difference!
@@9to5MillionaireMindset But only after.
This is the first most calm, logical, and compassionate thinking of layoff I have seen in RUclips. Hope you find something new and maybe better soon!
Thank you that was exactly the vibe I was hoping to bring to the world!
You can try Malaysia. The Malaysia government always seem to have problem with brain drain and Malaysians here generally value foreigner talents more than the local talents. So I think you can try your shot here. Good luck.
Never trust corporations, work for yourself first
Even ex google employee having a hard time finding a new job, yup my life is over.
Hang in there mate! 💪
Your life is over just cause Google laid you off? WOW…. If that’s true, sounds like you never had a life to begin with.
@@GeorgiaMade404706 maybe tough to find a similar job with same salary
I'm an ex Google employee and having a hard time as well. I have an interview with amazon next week, so hoping this gonna be my big break.
It always depends on your job type. He was Head of Sales for Small Companies. Maybe they just merged it with another position.
I was laid off from Google, and that was the best thing that happened to me
This is an amazing take on being laid off. I admire your positive and level-headed outlook.
Thank you for your kind words and support. No matter what happens, if we stay positive and kind, we will always find our way.
Getting laid off really sucks, but to avoid the worst, build a network outside of work! 💼🔗
💯 at the very least we have diversification of networks, at the very best we have more great friends 😁
That's why cold approaches + skills of talking to strangers is life cheat code (If u have no ego of cos lol) Someone's waiting to meet/collaborate with u out there, and trust me its a skill that even my CEO ex-bosses from 10 previous companies deprived of LOL. Cos they be thinking they're too high up to make friends with anyone 😂When they're outside, they're jus another Tom, Dick, Harry nobody cares about
Always gather corporate secrets so you can sell them when getting laid off.
Hey Shao, I seldom comment on YT - but this video really resonated with me. I got laid off almost a year ago, immediately started job hunting and went through the exact same emotional roller coaster you have described. Even after landing a new role, I could never quite shake off that feeling of inadequacy and low self worth. I thought it was just me, but hearing you describe your own experience made me realise how we are all so alike.
Thanks mate, I hope you've landed your next adventure already and are enjoying life again 💪
Thank you Tariq for being so open. I also hesitated to share my experience so openly, but your sharing has affirmed that so many of us are indeed alike going though the same pain. And we should continue to share and encourage others so that one day, they will bounce right back up just like you did.
With a BS degree in Electrical Engineering, I was unemployed in both my 30's and again in my 40's, and can relate that the emotional feeling are real. But also, so is the hard work needed to secure a new position (smile...smile).
I resonate with your comment, was also laid off, and I thought with my exp and field it was going to be easy but hiring its crazy and once you get a new job you always feel it can happen again
@@julissadc6303seems like regardless of where we are and the type of work we do, we all go through similar aspirations and insecurities 😊
That’s so relatable, thanks for sharing this so openly Shao! Much respect!
Thanks Grace for your support so many miles and timezone away!
@@9to5MillionaireMindsetUs older IT workers from the Dotcom crash know not to work at Big companies more than 1-2 years as they often to mass layoffs. Explain this point to young workers, NEVER stay at a big company long term.
Very honest speech. I appreciate you for opening up and being kind! I hope you will get your new job soon and have a happy life ahead.
Thank you for noticing that! I was indeed hoping to portrayed my honest self and thoughts as best as I could. I wish you a happy life too!
The sad reality is that the tech field is going through AI restructuring. From 2021-2023 they have laid off 500,000 positions. In 2024, 321 tech firms have lost 96,551 and the projected 2026 laid-off may reach a 5-year total of 1,000,000 jobs. The coming real estate crash will cause high-tech firms to lose up to 50% stock value. The new book The Bubble that Broke The Bank sees the magic year to be in 2026. You are in a survival race.
Thanks for sharing! We gotta keep adapting and improving!
Well, there is no strong reason for real state market to crash.
I also missed the rally, but that doesn't mean I'll wait for dream for a crash unreasonably
The ripple effect is also scary. $250k a year salary meant having the disposable income to travel, hire babysitters and pet sitters, renovate houses, have a cleaning lady, etc There is an entire mini economy that runs off upper middle class white collar workers
@@lg206great point.
"AI" is the curtain. Behind the curtain it's really the H-1B restructuring.
Hey, thanks for sharing your learnings from what must have been a very painful experience. A lot of wisdom in this video.
I was just wondering if I did the right thing in sharing so openly, so thank you for your encouragement
Shao, I really admire your positive approach towards layoffs. Life can be tough, but it's not necessarily difficult. One thing I've learned from this experience is the need to constantly work on yourself and try to build a world outside of your work circle as well.
Yes life is gonna be tough no matter what happens (getting laid off is hard, finding a job is also hard). But we can choose which "hard" we want to focus on.
Thank you for sharing that. I wish you all the best!
Sorry to know. Thanks for sharing the tips.
It is very good to see an honest and fresh take to this. Stay strong, king. 👑 We'll all go through this strong.
You stay strong too king!
Here is the best piece of advice that anyone could ever give you: set up your own business and never look back again.
Yes, it's so easy to set up ur own business, become a solo trader 😎😂🤣😃😄
Doing what exactly?
Perfect video! Very constructive and clear ! Thank you:)
Thank you for watching!
As someone in the Recruiting and Staffing Industry this video is brilliant. Life sucks sometimes, it's hard to pick yourself back up, at the end keep pushing forward, one small step at a time...just move forward
Thank you for watching! And yes folks in recruiting and staffing do such a crucial job, but it's often misunderstood or unappreciated (especially during a layoff or tough period). Keep doing what you do so we can all be matched with our dream jobs!
Thank you for sharing this. This is a really well-articulated video and might help everyone who faced layoffs. We all are part of this survival race and the community should help each other in this tough time.
Yes tough times are always gonna be there, but kindness and resilience is something we can always strive for. Thank you for watching!
Thanks for sharing and all the best with your search!!!! The next best job is waiting for you! 🎉
Thank you! I aim to live joyfully! 😉
Wow.. that was amazing..!! You articulated it very well..!! All the best.

Great honest talk and helpful to all of us.
Thank you for your support!
Thank you very much for sharing! Excellent advice! 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Having just joined the thousands of people that have been laid off, this is a brilliant video. The stressful part for many people might be the financial impact, sometimes finding the next role, is just the next role for 'now' while you regain a level of financial security while finding the right job.
Painful experience. Looks like you're doing good mentally, which is good.
Good luck and keep pushing! ;)
I have learned that pain is the most effective teacher. Let's keep pushing!
As a Googler until recently (left voluntarily though, after 18 years) who saw many great colleagues let go, love the pragmatism and future-looking optimism of your message. Looking forward to more of your videos!
Thank you for your support! And excited to hear back from you again on your next chapter!
This is really good of you to share.
Thanks for the great video. I've been laid off two times, and your lessons resonated with me.
Well said: if all your friends are work buddies then that means a company decides whether you have friendships or not.
Excellent content!
It highlights the importance of prioritizing our personal lives before the company. Your insights remind us of what truly matters in life. Thanks for sharing mate!
What an amazing insight! Your humbleness and wisdom has overcome any negativity you could harbour and demonstrates you are a next level human!
That's very kind of you; we are all doing our best. I wish you all the best too!
Amazing video dear Shao, it makes me clear so many circumstances that I also went through, and I believe that we share the same ideas, but you make them so easy to understand! I love the structure of your wise words.
Thank you my dear friend. I always know you are there for me
It's wonderful to share your experience. One of the issues in corporate america is that majority of the people getting laid off don't get a huge severance packages like Google/Meta provides. So, your words of encouragement is cute but very hard for someone to process who have little savings, and have been living paycheck to paycheck. If all of us did not have to worry about health insurance, car insurance, rent/mortgage, auto mortgage, kids, and other things in life, no one would get hit hard by layoffs. If you look at other countries in Europe/Asia, cost of living/health/auto/travel is very low. Literally one person could work and take care of 4 people. So, if one person in the family gets laid off and other household members still have a job, it doesn't hit them as hard. But in the US, two working people can't even take care of a single household. So, one person getting laid off is close to a death sentence. Just look at the housing cost in California, who in their right mind allowed it to happen and continues to let it happen?
That is why one needs to have an education in how to plan one’s finances for their lifetime. The USA is terrible in that way. Very-few people know how to budget for things. It is a sad country when it comes to that skill even being taught, let alone being implemented in individuals lives.
Sorry about that. I wish you nothing but the best, and I hope your next journey is even more meaningful and enriching financially.
Thank you for your kind support. I wish you all the best too, and thanks for watching!
Thank you for your video and best of luck to you in the future!
If you would like to share this information: how did the layoff look like financially? How high Was your severance package?
Hey thanks for your support! I actually shared about becoming financial free even after being laid off in my first video in this same channel. Do check it out!
A better word is colleague or acquaintance instead of work friend.
I also learned that "we are a team, not a family"

I am glad you found it helpful; that made my day! And thanks for watching and supporting my channel as well!
The company doesn’t care about the employees best interests. Anything that has a salary is an expenditure even though you probably generated 10x the value of what they paid you. They basically owe you the employee money because when you factor the surplus salary they pocket by pillaging it from your pay check, you were basically working for free.
Put yourself in the company's position😂
I was fired in my 20s (not laid off). Best thing to happen to me. I was an accountant and miserable. I saw the department heads and didn’t aspire to become them one day. I went back to school and got an MBA and then a law degree. I honed in on the industry that inspired me (tech), and that has taken me on a magnificent 25 year journey so far serving in legal and business roles, including roles as Chief Legal Officer and one as CEO. 5 years ago I struck out on an entrepreneurial journey and that has brought a new dimension to my career. Use every inflection point in your life to your advantage. You will have many forks in the road.
Thank you for your assurance! I indeed believe there are many forks down my road too! And great career advice too; asking yourself if you have the aspirations to become the current leaders of your current role.
Good to hear, but for most people, getting laid off is just bad, no silver lining. You got lucky, most just have to take the hit and whatever job they can find at that time and start building again from there
Thank u so much for sharing your thoughts... raw n insightful. Yes, layoffs sucks big time and you need time to overcome it. I had mine in 2012 but fortunate enough to have a helping hand to land the next role within 6 months. I wish you all the best in the next role and you will do great! 🙏
I am glad you found it relevant. And well done on overcoming your own layoff. It's getting so common that it's now a crucial career skill for all of us to have.
Getting pushed is the best thing that can ever happen to you! Good luck on your journey, sir. Greatness is just around the corner. Thanks for sharing your story with us!! :)
No doubt! Thanks for your confidence! Greatness is upon all of us, we just gotta work for it!
How do companies expect loyalty from their employees nowadays - Google or not.
It's not your fault in mass firings or redundancy.
Thank you for the affirmation; the more people impacted know this, the better!
Very good advice and thanks for doing this....
Thank you for watching!
You are the definition of resilience! ❤
Thank you that's such a nice compliment to receive!

Very insightful stuff, The first experience of a layoff can be quite traumatic as you said so much of ones identity is tied to their job, once you detach from that its much easier to move on. Not everyone has grandiose visions of advancing their career, some are just role players and that’s ok too. The most important thing is to take care of yourself. The universe works in mysterious ways.
Great reminder that we are all writing chapters of our own stories. And yes the universe works in mysterious and amazing ways!

Sometimes layoffs target the higher paid employees to reduce cost.
Thank you so much for this video. I have just experienced the same path and I can't agree more with you on every single topic you brought up. I wish you had created this year ago, you would have saved me so many difficult moments. Yet, I want to emphasize the friend circle topic. This was the most difficult for me to accept. So many people that where acting as friends and finally they were not...
Thank you for your kind words and for spending time watching my video. I was initially worried and feeling insecure like "who am I to tell people what to do and feel". So your assurance tells me I am on the right track.
And yes I wish I was also told these harsh realities early on because they were not taught in school or talked about at the family dinner table. So one of my goals of creating this channel to spread more awareness about such realities of working.
And yes the friends part is really hard to accept. But it's an opportunity to be kind, everyone is just doing their job and trying their best to take care of their families. Those that stick with you are then a bonus, that you found really good friends ☺️
Smart video👏🏾, thank you.
