I’m confused on what’s happening in the job market. I see people still jumping to other companies b/c there are so many opportunities, but then I see all these posts here and LinkedIn about layoffs. What’s really happening?

There’s been way too much short term investment and lax hiring practices during the pandemic. Layoffs are terrible and I don’t wish them upon anyone, but there’s a lot of people and companies that aren’t providing a lot of value right now and this correction needs to happen.

I started a full time in-house design job that pays extremely well. I barely have to work at all. This makes me very confused since I kept hearing stories of people working 60+ hr weeks as designers at ad agencies. I am not complaining, but I have this creeping irrational feeling that I’ll get fired for not working even though there’s nothing for me to do. Should i be making up projects or asking for more work? Or just chill out? I just feel very confused. Are a lot of full time jobs like this?

Do I just make something else up entirely?
