The company I work for has laid off a big percentage of employees recently. Seems weird watching people you've known for years walk out the door. They get a severance package as well but I know it's still a shock for them.
Good news is there's parking at work now. |

What really sucks when they have layoffs? When you are a manager who has to lay off 10 good people, when you know 2 useless people with offices are still employed because of the work they did 10 years ago...

Best of luck on your search. I'm hoping I don't have to start searching soon...

Just think of it this way, they are paying you to golfing, fishing, anything you want for a month. Just chill & relax! Refocus! A paid vacation!
Then go job hunting the 2nd month. FTR, Sorry to hear this but I believe and trust that you will land a new job that's perfect for you. |

Sorry to hear it, Tech is the right space though!
You'll find another one soon! I prefer working a the smaller orgs and helping them build something, the payoff can be better than big orgs. Good luck brotha! |

Despite this experience, I'm definitely going to look at early- to mid-stage startups. My role (consumer insights, to oversimplify) probably won't exist in the earlier side, but being a one-man research shop kind of sounds fun. We'll see what I find.
