During the economic crisis, did you get laid off?

Thread Content

I have been working in Guangdong for almost ten years; I’m still employed there. Currently, the company is not doing well financially. Although there is some sort of living allowance, it’s barely enough to make ends meet. Comrades, we need to hold on; otherwise, it’s better to change careers soon. How is everyone’s work situation?

I have been working at the company for ten years and am still there. Currently, the company is not doing well financially; it only pays the basic salary, which is far from enough.

Where is the upstairs? It’s that serious!

It’s quite difficult to support a family relying on just one person’s salary; it’s a bit better if there are two salaries, but still, it’s not as good as running one’s own business

I was laid off, haha – from a fairly well-known American-owned engineering company

Some projects have been halted, and the sense of crisis is unprecedented. :'(

I didn’t get laid off, but prices have risen and bonuses have decreased.

Everyone must set themselves special goals during this special time; do not waver, as the difficulties will pass soon

It’s not bad; since I’ve always only earned a basic salary, and that amount remains unchanged, it can’t really be considered a pay cut.

I haven’t lost my job, but my bonuses have been significantly reduced, and my finances are in trouble

I haven’t started working at the company yet. I heard that the benefits are pretty average, and with the economic crisis going on right now, it’s not easy to make a living there!

Our company is doing well; we managed to get through the toughest months of last year, and things have improved since this year. The company has no plans to lay off employees.
