Pros

- I thankfully didn’t get laid off

Cons

- I now have the looming threat of being laid off, because CEO said the layoffs happened without regard for performance or impact to teams. Some very high performers with ownership of projects were let go without warning in a 7% layoff at the beginning of 2023. Happy new year.
