Thread regarding Freddie Mac layoffs

It’s going down, I’m yelling timber!

Current administration wants Freddie and Fannie out of conservatorship. Large number of positions to be cut. Buyout packages having hard time getting approved and the next step will be a straight out mass layoff with no buyout.

I recently got an offer from Freddie and supposed to start 11/11/2019. I do have another offer in hand and wonder if i still should decline the offer from Freddie?

I am wondering how this would affect the local job market, with 900-1500 people flooding the market for work just before a potential recession. Are these full-timers/local contractors or mostly TRANSIENT contractors?

I have heard between 900-1500 people. This amounts to 10-25% of all employees.

The company should be more transparent about this!

Less generous offers to be expected.
