[QUOTE="Chase, post: 265423, member: 586"] Salesforce is not the only company slowing hiring. Amazon, Microsoft, Uber, Twitter, and other companies are also experiencing slow hiring. The slow hiring rates and war for talent are forcing some companies to re-evaluate their hiring plans. However, some companies are sticking to their guns and not making layoffs. The slow hiring is likely due to the changing needs of consumers and the easing of COVID-19 rules. While many companies are trying to keep their employee bases as high as possible, the companies need to be flexible and adjust their hiring strategy. [B]Microsoft slows hiring[/B] Microsoft is slowing down its hiring process in a number of key areas, including the Teams application, Azure business unit and security software. New hires must be approved by upper management before they can start working, according to a company spokesperson. The slowdown is not a company-wide trend. The tech giant is trying to make sure it makes the best hires for its growing business, but it is also taking precautions during this period of economic uncertainty. In its most recent quarter, Microsoft said it will lay off about 1% of its 180,000-person workforce, with a focus on consulting and customer solutions. Despite the slowdown, the company intends to end its fiscal year with a higher headcount. Microsoft will continue to hire for certain critical roles, such as engineers, but will scale back on hiring in general. In response to the slowing economy, other companies are reducing hiring in the tech industry. Amazon slows hiring While Amazon's tumultuous hiring policy has many speculating about what's behind its decision, an internal report has revealed that it is planning to reduce its workforce by up to a third between now and 2024, when it expects to exhaust its labor pool in the Inland Empire region. Although the report did not name specific locations, it suggested that the company will not be able to reduce its workforce in highly competitive areas. While Amazon's slowdown may seem like a shocker to the tech sector, the company's decision to reduce its headcount reflects the course correction that's happening across the tech industry. In the last year alone, over 28,000 tech workers have lost their jobs in the space of a few months. Earlier this week, Twitter and Gopuff announced that they had laid off thousands of workers. Alphabet, the parent company of Amazon, has also slowed hiring. It is unlikely that it will hire any technical employees until the omicron has passed. Uber slows hiring In a surprise move, Uber is slowing down its hiring process and slashing incentives and marketing spending to help it become leaner. The move comes as the tech industry slows down. The company says the change in strategy is the result of a "seismic shift" in investor sentiment. But why would the company choose to slow hiring? This is a good question to answer in light of recent developments in the tech sector. The latest company to announce a slowdown in hiring is Uber, which has also been cutting costs in its transportation services business. The company has been having difficulty finding drivers to meet its demand, which has led to a decline in its stock price. However, the company's CEO Dara Khosrowshahi has made it clear that it will focus on profitability on a free cash flow basis. The upcoming shift will likely be a positive move for investors, and will give the company a chance to reinvest a portion of its earnings in the future. [B]Twitter slows hiring[/B] The tech industry is currently struggling with a shortage of workers, which has led some firms to freeze recruitment. Recently, Salesforce put a freeze on recruitment, putting some open positions on hold. Other tech companies have also frozen or halted hiring, such as Uber and Meta. Companies cite increasing inflation and stock market selloffs for the freezes. Nonetheless, this recent trend in hiring freezes contrasts with the broader recruitment environment for tech workers. As a result, companies such as Facebook, Uber, Netflix, and Twitter have halted hiring. Some companies have ceased hiring entirely, like Google, while others have only slowed down their recruitment efforts. Uber and Lyft have also slowed hiring. In addition to halting hiring, both companies have canceled some scheduled interviews. And in response to the market slump, some have closed their doors for good. [B]Tesla slows hiring[/B] A recent email from Tesla CEO Elon Musk indicated that the company would pause hiring globally. Earlier this year, the company had posted more than 5,000 job listings. Since then, however, that number has fallen by more than two-thirds, with only 260 still open. This could be due to some reposting of job postings, or because the company has added vacancies as people are hired. In any case, it is still a sign that the company is concerned about the economy. Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, recently issued a warning about the economy, ordering a hiring freeze and a staff reduction. The email is a rare and direct message from an automaker to its employees. While demand for Tesla cars has remained strong, the company has had difficulty restarting production at its Shanghai factory. The company recently endured costly outages, prompted by the Covid-19 lockdowns. The company had planned to cut ten percent of its total staff, but now, its CEO has decided that the economy is not as strong as it once was. [/QUOTE]
