If you get fired or you get let go for non performance related reasons it is better because you can apply and collect for unemployment.

I see is that because being fired for performance can impact ability to get another job?

Get that severance

Find a new job then put in your notice. Otherwise depends. If you get fired you can collect unemployment till you find a new job. If you quit you can’t collect unemployment since you voluntarily left your job.

Do not quit. If you quit you’re giving up the potential for severance and collecting unemployment.

Depends. If you're fired are you recieving any benefits (i.e., severance), or is the firing due to any wrongdoing?

I have a friend on a PIP due to professionalism gaps. She has improved however she feels as though she will be terminated. She doesn’t know if she will get severance.

Loll at this thread

If you have any severance coming (PTO, contract BO, leave, etc.) that is dependent upon your proper "2 weeks notice", then you can weigh that against no severance from the job if you are fired. Typically, quitting makes you ineligible for unemployment benefits. I saw writing on the wall and submitted 2 weeks: I got 6 weeks of accumulated leave time and received remaining hours toward my pension. I left several $$$ on the table but if I had waited for the axe, I would be totally dependent upon meager unemployment. Also, calculate your insurance coverage.

I am an IT architect with 10 years of experience specifically in Salesforce products. I am thinking of moving from a strategy consulting role to an architecture role in Salesforce (company) itself. I have experience building tech strategies and also technical project delivery.

Wondering if it makes sense to apply for an Enterprise Architect (pre-sales) or a Senior Technical Architect role??

Also in terms of seniority and salary are these roles any different?

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.
