I was cut today due to COVID. I asked why I wasn’t furloughed and was told my position was eliminated. I’ve never had problems with performance and everyone loved working with me. I am heartbroken.

I always look at when Companies do this, they are actually doing you a favor. They chose to show their true business ethics, which are none. Better to get out now that work for a crap company. There will be a better opportunity, trust me.

So sorry to hear this. Here at CR we need to break down our time, they let go of temps now we are being trained to do their jobs. It's a matter of time for layoffs again with April 30 coming around. They already did layoffs for low performers. Grateful to have a job right now. But stressful if you are next. Maybe they are now looking for high salaries to be let go. We will see.

I’m sorry to hear that.

Are there any Organizations still out there who are hiring/open for referral and are in position to handle recession.

I feel a little crazy saying this, but more money at this point doesn’t resonate. I see a ton of exit planning and boomerang threads here, but I’d take a 50% pay cut (or a 50% raise) for an exciting role. That’s totally privilege talking, but I just can’t imagine chasing extra money in PE or lateraling just for the money. No virtue signaling here at all. I actually worry on some level that I’m somehow a moron for not giving a thought to maximizing earnings.
