I was laid off at the start of covid in 2020, luckily i got picked up quickly from a company i had been talking to for a bit. Others were not so fortunate and i feel you, happy to help any way i can ps.
Point of post, we at my new company now in December 2020 had a RIF and let 25% of the company go, which EBITDA concerns and looking at future fiscal notes made sense but still never easy. We then had a wave of second voluntary attrition end of Q1 after bonuses went out.
Question- Did anyone else go through this? My team went from 15 to 9, and the effects are still there and weighing on people. Does anyone have some magic motivation or words of encouragement they used in a similar situation? Did anyone have or in a similar situation?
Looking for some guidance on how to keep morale high with the remaining cast. Did raise all their pay, couple promotions, working on spiffs, but am i missing something easy? And yes im having open and honest conversations with them all still. Thanks in advance.
