“I was laid off at Walmart today, alongside many of my talented coworkers”: A woman wrote as a part of her post after getting fired.
Walmart, a retail giant, is undergoing significant changes. It is closing several stores across different locations and eliminating hundreds of corporate jobs. A UX designer who shared her experience on LinkedIn claimed she, too, lost her job amid the ongoing downsizing.
“How quickly things can change! I was laid off at Walmart today, alongside many of my talented coworkers. This was honestly a major shock, and I was excited to continue growing with the company. On the bright side, I'm excited about the prospect of taking my skills and expertise to a new opportunity, and hopefully finding another incredible team to work with,” the Chinese-origin woman wrote.
