   San Francisco’s housing crisis intensified sharply during the pandemic,   
   and recent layoff announcements from companies across the city only   
   reinforce that fact.   
      
   Doma, a mortgage refinancing firm, laid off a whopping 250 staff members   
   in late August. This news came on the heels of another large round of   
   layoffs in the San Francisco Housing Authority, which laid off 146   
   employees in August. Another rental company, Apartment List, also reported   
   layoffs, announcing a modest 29-person reduction in their workforce.   
      
   Big tech companies are not immune to the effects of America’s current   
   economic challenges, either. Stripe and Snap (the parent company of   
   Snapchat) laid off 50 and 40 workers, respectively, in San Francisco.   
   Across all locations, Snap Inc. axed about 20% of the company’s workforce,   
   totaling more than 1,200 employees.   
      
   Though tech companies justified their downsizing as post-acquisition   
   downsizing or company restructuring, recent layoffs reflect the tightening   
   of the tech market as companies slow hiring and adapt to a tanking stock   
   market, ballooning inflation and other ongoing economic challenges.   
      
   In the past week, more than 600 employees from eight companies have been   
   added to the list of 2022 San Francisco layoffs. Read more details in the   
   charts below.
