I’m sorry to hear that, I’m sure it’s a blow.
If it were me, I’d take the weekend to be sad and pissed and not start looking until Monday.

When I was searching, I limited my job searching from 9AM - 1/2pm. I took the rest of the day off. Helped me not burn out on searching.

Wishing you the best

Are PMs getting laid off now?

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.
