My place of employment maybe going out of buisnesss. Should I look around or stick around?

Question

My company 30 people small company has laid off 10 people in less than a week. 6 on just Saturday alone. I know I am safe but the company maybe doomed and my tenure maybe limited because it maybe going put of buisness. Should I look around or remain devoted and stick around?

Answer 1

Look around. If you can see the writing on the wall, it's pointless to remain.

Answer 2

I would start looking around. It doesn't hurt to get some aps in and see what is available. You can always turn down a job if you think your current job will last. But if your job ends and you have no prospects lined up, that makes life harder. Good luck.

Answer 3

you are only as exposed as you let yourself. if you feel that your position is secure, you should have enough of a relationship/pull to ask you direct manager for his/her opinion - state the facts and let him/her know your feelings. I doubt he/she will tell you to find a job asap, but atleast you can get on the inside track of the titanic instead of being blind-sided. If it was me and i loved my job - i would ride with it till the bitter end, if you have any hesitation on maybe desiring a new job/new life - now is the chance you have been dreaming for to jump ship, do it while you still have a paycheck!

Answer 4

It seems that everyone should be looking around. Those that find other jobs may provide more job security for the remaining employees.

Answer 5

Start looking for another job. Don't wait for them to go out of business. It's better to be safe than sorry.

Answer 6

If your company may be going out of business, then you need to find another job.

Answer 7

I would look around for another company to work for. It's better to be safe, than sorry,.

Answer 8
