Very bad, are you from IT audit stream or tech consultant ?

No not from Tech . Audit and compliance.

Hey sorry for your situation. You are from which tech stack, location and business area?

In recent months, layoffs have become increasingly common, and salaries have remained stagnant for the past few years. However, the situation in India is somewhat better. As you move up the corporate ladder in India, the salary gap between the UK and India is narrowing. For example, a similar position in the UK might offer a salary of £80,000-£85,000, whereas in India, the equivalent salary is ₹50-60 lakh per annum.

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
