Dear #connections
I want to share that I’ve been impacted by the recent Walmart Global Tech restructuring, where over 1,500 roles were affected worldwide. It’s never easy news, but I’m proud of what I’ve built and the teams I’ve been part of.
During my time at Walmart Global Tech, I spearheaded full-stack initiatives—from React dashboards and Spring Boot microservices to multi-region Kubernetes deployments—that drove key vendor management and case-management solutions.
I’m a graduate of IIT Guwahati and have 2 years of experience as a Software Engineer, passionate about building scalable systems and solving complex problems end-to-end. As I transition to the next chapter, I’m actively exploring opportunities where I can bring both hands-on coding expertise and a collaborative spirit to a new team.
If you know of roles in full-stack, backend, or cloud-native development, or just want to connect and chat, please reach out or pass this along. I’m excited to see what’s next—and grateful for the support of this community.

1.5K... That number might seem abstract, but to me, it represents colleagues I’ve worked with, learned from, and deeply respected over my 16 years at the company.
If there’s one thing this moment makes clear, it’s that companies will always act in their own interest. That’s not meant as criticism-it’s just how business works. It’s not personal, but it feels personal when you’re the one affected.
Still, a job doesn't define you. Your skills, your experience, your perspective-those are yours to take wherever you go next. I honestly believe many of you will find a place that values what you bring, gives you room to breathe, and maybe even lets you enjoy the work a little more.
You've got this.
i was not aware they are eliminating headcount in india too. i guess we are in this boat together. they will probably send it somewhere wheres even cheaper, let's say pakistan. once wages rise there they will move it somewhere even cheaper, lets say bangladesh. once they are done with that they will send it to africa and will start shuffling countries there as well. mgmt is evil
