      Is there any word as to what the general skill sets most hitting the street includes?

        Everything. I know that they have laid off: PR, Sales, Marketing, Design, SpiceAgents, QA, developers, account managers and content creators.

          Great start @Nic I would love to help the guys in all ways possible. From here, i could only do few things; chip in to the donation fund (may be not a big amount, but something i would be more than happy to spend, ready to do this monthly), disabling adblockers on spiceworks site both at work and home. I wish i could help more than that!

          Do you plan to have a platform for the guys to interact either here or on spiecworks groups?

            Maybe some vendors want to step in and sponsor ML to pick up some content creators 😉

              If we had vendors who would advertise more etc. I would be happy to hire on some of them. Actually I would LOVE to have that chance.

                One of the former Spiceworks is putting together a Facebook alumni group and I'm helping point people in that direction.

                      I know of at least one person in the UK office. It's a smaller office though so there may not be any more they could spare from there.

                            I've not heard of any, but likely would not have.

                              I haven't heard of anything yet, but it's only been a few weeks. That's a pretty short time to land a professional white collar job.

                                AND lots of these people are going to be evaluating life, too. It's a pretty short time for a lot of them to decide on what they want to do next. What if they want to move, make a change, go back to school, etc. They might be doing a lot of "not finding a job next" kind of things, too.

                                  Hoping that everyone lands somewhere safely and gets to make the best of this opportunity.
