You good people of the realm are a “cog”, you are not the whole machine.
Given this, make yourself an important “cog”, one for which if you were missing the machine would fail. Strategize yourself, skill up and become more valuable.
All you can do is be prepared
None of us know what tomorrow will bring. All we can be certain is that there'll be more layoffs, but we can only guess when. There's no point in stressing over it. Make sure you're prepared in case it happens the best you can, and then simply... — read more

Are you happy with your comp?
Raise%, bonus%? How you did compare to your colleague?
The answer isn’t pulling back from the abyss but its designing a company that doesn’t get there in the first place.
This of course requires a leader with vision and foresight. So the question remains, do we have that now?
Poor Timing
I get it is never a good time to have layoffs but I find it to be poor taste to announce 12 billion in net income and then a few days later to lay people off. Did impacted people have compensation conversations yesterday and then told today well... — read more
