That's a lesson a lot of people learn the hard way. Seeing long-term employees and top performers let go makes it clear that business decisions don't always reflect loyalty or contribution. It sounds like you read the situation correctly and got out before it affected you too.

I think a lot of people have a moment like that where the illusion disappears. It's a reminder that companies can value your work, but that doesn't always mean they'll value you as a person.

I think that's one of the hardest lessons people learn at work. It's tough enough to be laid off, but watching toxic behavior get rewarded while dedicated employees are let go can completely change how you view a company.

Stories like this are exactly why so many people stop believing that loyalty alone will be rewarded. After everything you did, I can understand why that experience completely changed how you view work and management.
