In this time it's never been more important to try to help each other through some of the deepest layoffs and hardest job cuts that the modern economy have ever seen. I think this is an important and valuable project and I'm glad Martin is working on it.
Hi everyone 👋🏼
Thanks for hunting us @garrytan!
Martin here, I'm a cofounder of Pelion.
In the last few weeks we've seen friends, customers, and former colleagues affected by layoffs in the technology industry.
Mentors on Pelion spend a lot of 1:1 time with mentees, figuring out how to progress their careers. Many have reached out asking to do pro-bono work for those affected by the layoffs.
We're launching Pelion Cares to enable more of these conversations.
If you're able to commit a few hours to working with someone who's been laid off: please sign up.
If you've been laid off: sign up and we'll match you with someone who can provide some measure of support.
Being laid off will always be a terrible experience — perhaps we can help make it a less lonely one.
