The layoffs are here for those who chose to 'learn to code'

• Software engineers have overwhelmingly faced layoffs this year, per data from Revelio Labs.
• Coders made up 14% of employees at tech companies, but represented 20% of layoffs in 2023. 
• It's a big shift from data from late last year, which showed recruiters were overwhelmingly cut.

Coding jobs have long been equated with job security in the tech industry. But for those who chose to "learn to code," Vox reports, the layoffs wave of 2023 is challenging that notion.
