I got laid off today. 6 months into my new role. Company hired me to develop business in building technology. Said they would give me 12-18 months to build my business because the real estate industry sales cycles are so long. I built 5 million in top line pipeline in 6 months and in that time we took on a series A investment round. I’ve been laid off because they want sales dev kids right out of college making 14 dollars an hour dialing for dollars.
They gave me two weeks severance. 6 weeks before Christmas.
Fuck them
