It depends on your access to financial information.

A big red flag is when the company starts to sell it's receivables. Meaning they need cash now and will sell $1M in future receipts for $500k now.

Also, look for lots of meetings at the end of the fiscal quarters . FQ's are used by most companies as indicators of how they're doing in terms of sales, cash flow, and the strength of their financial position. If the company is not doing as well as planned, the quarters are when changes are made. This can include downsizing.

Around the office, look for things like closed door meetings between managers of the same level but in different departments. Cutting back on expenses-the holiday party is held in the break room this year, not at a restaurant. and most important-PEOPLE LEAVING!!!

When they get rid of free snacks and drinks. When they cut that, you know they're cutting costs for the obvious reason. Trust me, I have many friends who have gone through this. Getting rid of the food and beverages is the first sign.

If you have to ask....

I think any business that is not growing in quarterly income is in danger.
