Well I was in same dilemma, but decided to go ahead with resignation. I feel that if people in Faang companies are not safe, then no one is. I think it's worth taking your chances, rather than feeling a false sense of security in where we are.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
