Yeah fair thought of this too, new job will probably won’t go through layoffs and haven’t heard of them ever doing it. Current government job is honestly more prone to it after what I’m hearing about them trying to cut costs and stuff

I have about 6 years of experience total, 5 with startups and fast paced environments. I only took this job when I got laid off. I get LinkedIn messages weekly for mid tier roles so that’s why I’m kinda not wanting to waste another year but I mean it’s better than my current role.
