Is it crazy to switch jobs right now given all the layoffs constantly happening? I feel safe currently but is it a false sense of security and should go out and get paid?

There’s no such thing as safety, I’m watching my work win a bunch of Lions after getting laid off this year

Building your network should be priority for connecting to new opps when you do eventually get laid off. Moving jobs is a good way to expand your network. Keep on good terms with everyone as much as possible. You don’t need to fake it but work hard and be nice. The more people you know the more potential to help each other in the future.

Word is Ogilvy started laying off yesterday. Just days after posting about all the lions they won.

Look out for yourself and get paid.

I was informed today that my employment would be terminated at a tier-2 consulting firm in Toronto. The reasons for my dismissal are unclear and I would like to get legal advice on the termination agreement and severance package that was offered. Has anyone experienced a similar situation and can refer a good employment lawyer?

I took a product management course this year and it felt really good and different from the day to day of Talent Acquisition but I couldn’t help but wonder if it was the wrong time for this considering the state of tech. I got laid off due to economic impact recently and would appreciate any tips on how best to pivot careers to product as I am beginning to think that the only sustainable path for a recruiter is to start a business of your own.

I think I have work trauma not sure how it’s clouding my ability to make decisions. I’ve had unstable work after being laid off from a company 3 years ago. I thought I worked out a plan to get to a stable place but my job is proving to be unstable yet again. I secured a FT role at another company but because it’s a lot less money I’m unsure because I feel very cynical about companies in general. I assume it’ll be just like all the rest but now I’ll just be making less and could get laid off.
