Wishing everyone the same thing. Inflation is getting worse and the unemployment rate is skyrocketing. Hope everyone has at least a good support system to rely on during the holidays.

I have talked to my team so that everyone tries to do their best to avoid this situation as much as possible.

Very good actually, I really needed this rest from work. Did you take advantage of them?

It's been tough but so far have been spared - hope everyone is ok so far!

I'm srill safe for now, but I have this looming feeling that we're gonna be hearing another set of bad news over the next week. Has anyone found any good job postings? Will be keeping tabs just in case.

Anxious, knowing that Christmas is right around the corner and 2023 doesn't seem to guarantee anything good for all employees around the world.

So many of my friends are freelancers who were the first to see their income dry up, with no where to turn for help. It's concerning for sure.

Feeling anxious but coping. I fear that I would be next. I am currently looking for other opportunities as a plan B just in case.

Not feeling so good. At this point, we can't be too sure of anything. I hope I get to keep my job.

Still feeling anxious! How about you? I hope you're doing well, OP!

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.

If I get laid off, I have a previous colleague that started a cybersecurity company. I would love to get involved on the business side of it. Any pointers on skills that are attractive in this realm for a startup? Would be mostly (if not all) federal defense contracting clients.
