I guess you are right , I guess that’s due to 25% of market cap of the organisation got eroded last week

sounds like it, they'd probably say no if it was actually a no, maybe do a follow up or ask if you can follow up in a couple weeks

It's actually the first time I got such a not so clear cut yes/no type response so got a bit confused. I was thinking about asking if my understanding of the message is right - I cleared the test but hiring freeze in place. Hopefully it won't be taken as a dumb question 😅🤞

I can't tell if you ended up dodging a bullet or if you were trying to get in on the discounted RSU grant, but where have you been lol

I was generally aware about the hiring freeze but seems like I should follow closely 😬

Why was the original post removed? In fact most of the posts I get notified for are actually removed....?

Yeah it's pretty much all of big tech at the moment according to this article. Here's the quote from Meta specifically

> Meta: “We expect hiring to slow dramatically and to hold headcount roughly flat next year relative to current levels.”

[D] I got this email after the first round of ML SWE round at Meta. Does it mean that I cleared the round but there's a hiring freeze in place?
