Well, that’s that then

Today at 9AM the company management announced we were going out of business.
Today.
Before lunch.
Everyone. One HR and one manager will remain until Wednesday to close things out.
Two weeks severance. The folks in January got a month. Some folks are pretty mad about that.
I’m already on the phone with my old boss from the last place who’s pitching me consulting for one of his clients. We’ll see how that goes.

Ugh. Sorry to hear. And it stinks you're going back to the previous place, but hopefully as a consultant you'll be able to avoid most of the BS

I'm not going back to the old place. I'm just contacting folks from there asking if they know of openings...

[palusbuteo]
