This happened to me too. I was about to resign the week before they laid me off. Now I get severance and six month pay and I start my job in three weeks
Yes get the severance incase other offer falls through. It’s Q4 yearly layoffs. Good luck & take a sabbatical.
Are you in the black in tech Facebook group by chance? I read this exact story earlier on FB so crazy coincidence if not. I hope everything works out for you!
Hehehe yes
Hopefully the severance is decent. Do you have your new job lined up?
Yes! I signed everything just finishing the BG check!
Love this for you. A severance package right before the holidays will be nice as well. Good thing you were able to read the writing on that wall! I bet they were saying everything is fine and layoffs weren’t actually coming for months!
That is really great and I am so happy for you! Says a lot about being perceptive and anticipating trouble ahead. Tensions have been so high where I am at, I’ve also been testing the waters out there and seeing what could be my next move if/when things start happening here.
I love this for you ❤️
Love this! Same thing happened to me last year actually lol. I found a new job making a much higher salary (with a sign on bonus) AND got a severance package with my vacation paid out from my previous employer. Got to take about 8 weeks off of work and paid off a significant amount of debt, take a short trip to reset, and put some money away in savings. Love when it works out that way. Congrats.
