Depends, if they’re in the process of buying a new car or house, I’d STRONGLY advise against it. Then refuse as conspicuously as possible to tell them how I know they shouldn’t.
I had a guy busy moving his family across the US when they cancelled remote work. Management decided to do layoffs while they were en route. He was on the list. At the time, I was actively interviewing to GTFO of that place and when we were chatting about work stuff I brought up that a position I saw at one would be perfect for his skill-set. He seemed worried and confused by my insistence that he apply. Anyway, as expected he showed up and they canned him before I could even walk in the door. But he got the other job and ended up loving it.
Risk their own job to do nothing to save the other person’s job?

If everyone stopped simping for the c-suite, it would be a lot harder for them to be shitty to people.
