I have multiple pending job offers. My plan was to accept one tomorrow and give notice the same day my current role. But, I got laid off today lol with severance. This is like the dream scenario right?? I am in shock
(I’m at a PE portco and got laid off due to post merger restructuring and wasn’t the only one hit in the RIF)
