I was laid off last year, the CTC was reasonably high there (110k USD base, not practical in India ik... Maybe that's why they had to cut us off). That of course was quite a down time but I was happy that I had a lot of side projects in hand, and was up to date with the tech stack. It's something I learned, "A company is a company, nothing less or more than that. Curious to know, what are your lessons from these times? That one thing you wish you told/reminded yourself before these lay offs? To me, it would be: 1. Stay humble. Your salary or your company shouldn't define your attitude. 2. Keep learning. Find time for your personal growth. 3. Stay active in the community, be aware of what's happening. Be it good or bad, it can come to you as well. 4. Save while you can! Savings have helped me a lot. P.S: I mentioned my base pay from prev salary not to boast about it, there is nothing to boast about tbh ... It's just to mention more context.
