Who's freezing hiring - List of companies freezing hiring, hiring and doing layoffs

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With lots of offers rescinded in the last few days, we took some time out to compile this list of tech companies freezing hiring or doing layoffs (and those that are still hiring).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

Hi, I'm David — the cofounder at Candor. Seeing many of my friends worry about this, we started compiling this list of companies freezing hiring from Coronavirus at 6am... and haven’t stopped. I hope it helps. I'll keep updating it live, so email me at if you're hearing anything.

Thank you for making this. Such an important initiative right now.
thanks for this list - really helpful 💙
Thank you for your hard work and generosity (with your time and energy)! This resource is, and will continue to be, invaluable for countless people. If there's anything you can use help with, design-related or otherwise, please let me know — happy to help however possible! Thanks again!
Great Initiative! How do you gather this kind of information about the companies?

We're reviewing every submission manually (over 1,000 so far!) and verifying directly with company leadership and news in the press where possible. We're a team of volunteers doing this so if you can help us out and help verify a hiring freeze one way or another, let us know. We need more companies that are hiring so if you can send us a link to your job board we'll promote it. This has had 170,000 visits over the weekend so your contributions really help a lot of people.

Great initiative, and really interesting data to sift through. This will turn into a great data post later depending on how it changes ;)

we're trying to make it even more useful every day :-)
This seems to be the definitive list of companies at this point (thanks ). Has anyone seen a similar "definitive" list for individuals laid off? So far, they seem company specific, like this one:
Maker
of wow ok this is a list of people looking because they've been laid off? Glad someone is doing this for the individual people who need help.
I am specifically hoping I can help connect laid off marketers to companies that need part time or full time marketing help right now. I'm the former head of marketing of Carta and Asana (taking some time off right now to explore some startup ideas) and thought I might be able to help.
Maker
DM me on Twitter and I'll see if I can help. Before Candor I was a co-founder at a growth marketing agency Ladder who I know are still hiring, and there might be others in my network.
Really appreciate the hard work put into making this list 🙏 thank you!
Maker
of course - we're happy everyone is finding it useful
