What it does

With lots of offers rescinded in the last few days, we took some time out to compile this list of tech companies freezing hiring or doing layoffs (and those that are still hiring). Updating live and linking to job boards if companies are still hiring.

With coronavirus and a possible recession, many companies are cutting headcount in 2020 and pausing hiring — learn who's affected.

Seeing many of my friends worried about this, I'm maintaining this list of companies freezing hiring (and those that are still hiring). Our expertise at Candor is salary negotiation , but we took time out to work on this and help those affected. The list is 100% user-generated — add information about your company below if you know anything. It's unclear how long the coronavirus pandemic is going to last or how much COVID-19 is going to affect the hiring market in the long term. Right now, about 60% of companies aren't making new hires, but many are just temporarily waiting to see how things shake out. Recessions tend to make companies close to failure fail faster and accelerate stronger…from candor.co
