What’s annoying is these companies maintain a “Careers” page with a bunch of job openings. “Oh look we’re the ones who are still hiring. Psych! We’ve been working on firing thousands!” At least GitHub shut down their careers page weeks before they announced their cut.
They removed about 60% of listings back in January (without notifying candidates, mind you), and seem to have removed another chunk today.
An optimist might assume that the remaining listings are legitimate, although it's possible that some recruiters are yet to come online and remove further listings today.
