I wish I hadn’t let getting laid off impact my confidence the way it did. I was part of the first round of layoffs in January. I had a good rating, got a good bonus. Was completely blind sided.
It took me a while to realize that my role elimination wasn’t me - the rest of my team was eliminated a few months later… All the way up to the MD who reported to the CEO. I was just the newest hire and they knew I had been job searching (people reached out to my boss after seeing we were connected on LinkedIn)
When I started my new role, I was incredibly timid and showed maybe half my personality because I was so sure I was the problem. Now that I’ve gained my confidence back and I’m my usual talkative self, I think my team likes me more
Wish I had procrastinated less.
