Layoffs were just announced at Microsoft earlier this week, and it looks like my org is fine. However, I’m paranoid - two weeks ago I got a 1:1 schedule invitation from my skip manager’s manager, scheduled for next Tuesday. When I got it, I thought it was just a adhoc chat with my org leader since I’m relatively new to the company and had an informal welcome coffee chat with her just a week before. However, given the waves of layoffs, I can’t help but to be paranoid. Am I overthinking?

When I was a fresh grad out of college, a pair of consultants came to our office. Management told us they were there to shadow us and write job aids for our duties “just to have on file” and for new hires. A few weeks later the company had layoffs and eliminated entire departments. Of course looking back now I know why the consultants were really there. Now that I’m a consultant myself, I’ve never seen that type of project or role come up. What type of consulting is this called or line of work?

I have been with IBM for 20 years, first 12 I progressed really fast but not much after. I am considering joining another consulting company instead as I do not nt feel valued at IBM, no matter how hard I try. Do you think it's wise to move now as we are getting into a recession? My thoughts are if I am laid off with IBM at least I get a nice severance but won't get the same with a new company. Should I wait the recession out?
