Most recession proof role
Which job function is least likely to be cut off when companies do mass lay offs?

It really depends on how close you are to the decision maker or leadership. If you are not close enough, you are just another cog in the machine waiting to be replaced irrespective of the function

The correct answer
replace decision-maker/leadership with owner
not a single one of top tier bankers at lehmann went to jail
some of them might have got a bonus and returned to doing even more shadier stuff

Good perspective

Grapevine admin

Anyone who has anything to do with food (with the exception of eating)

Not Consulting/Strategy 😂

I Feel finance roles, because the folks will be very less and I have not seen any layoffs in my experience.

How is engineering on top?!
Recent layoffs have majority software engineers

From most to least Hr, marketing, ops, sales, strat, prod, engg

sales, given you’re a top performer AND the company isnt planning to discontinue/disrupt the line of product you’re selling AND preferably selling B2B SaaS. Nobody can touch you if you bring in major bucks

*bring in major bucks especially in a recession

Mechanical engineer , 10k-20k per month, EOY doesn't matter, affordable.
