Shitty, but you'll come out the other side.

Hopefully in something better

Onward and upward indeed!

Next move is to lock in a new job. They gave me some severance pay but not much, only 2 weeks paycheck + PTO

MAKING IT HAPPEN!
Definitely stinks, same here I was just laid off after 6 months. COMPANY did a reorganization, CEO was let go all the same day.Weeks before that they laid off entire BDR team except 1 person. I knew something was up...didn't feel right so I had already began looking.

You got this. Opportunity is always the flip side to adversity.

It sucks when it happens but the great news is that every company needs salespeople. Just brush up your resume... make sure you tailor it to be company/job specific. And work on your interview skills.

Should I leave my job after 3 months?

I was hired at a really good start up about 4 months ago for a SDR role that I was told I wouldnโ€™t be in for very long. Theyโ€™re gonna go public in the next year, but Zoom Info reached out to me about an Account exec position. Now Iโ€™m wondering if I should take the guaranteed route to AE or let my shares vest and get to AE at the place that took me. Usually I wouldnโ€™t consider jumping so quickly, but AE is AE.
