I'm in the same boat. If the company is not selling or not selling enough, they need to cut cost. We all get that. The question is the selection process. Keep looking and don't give up.
I'm sorry to hear about the layoff, Patrick. I hope you find the right fit quickly.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading your honest summary of your experience. The lessons you've drawn are invaluable. The one about networking especially resonated with me. It's something I know I should do more of but never do.
Thanks, Vic! I appreciate you taking the time to read and respond! I'm planning to take the rest of the year to focus on writing Better by Design and building more useful content around it, then reassess my options in the new year 😎.
So sorry to hear of your news. I’m in my first design job, so thankfully have yet to experience that kind of bad luck. However, this newsletter was super insightful of things to keep in mind, which I will!

Thanks, Chase! Appreciate you, my friend!

Thanks, Olaolu!
I am sorry for you. Tech and the way it parts with people is brutal - people deserve a bit more of respect.
Appreciate you, David. 🙏
