Gotta get creative with your layoffs when you already did massive layoffs but still need to please wall street.

Yup, and when I worked w/ a team @ Facebook on a project, there were a lot of immigrants there. That really sucks, but the solution here should be to improve our immigration system so workers can more easily switch companies instead of getting deported and having to reapply.

100% agreed. The fact that it's possible to deport someone who has lived in America for decades just for getting laid off is absurdly cruel.

Yup. If you're here legally, it should be really easy to stay here (i.e. you'd have to try to get deported).
