With all the complaints on here about layoffs, reorganizations, morale, management and uncertainty, why are so many long-time employees still there? If another company offered you the exact same pay tomorrow, would you leave?

People stay because it pays the bills, people stay for the people they work with and support.
I left (thankfully) for a better job with a better company who appreciates what I do; while you work be looking for another job, no matter if you came from another company and got thrown in with the sharks and all the BS that OT throws at you, the company you work for doesn't care about you no matter what is said.
Don't let age stop you, don't let a lack of skills stop you, dig deep down and know that you can do whatever you put your mind to.
OT will fail, it's only a matter of time.
Use what time you have to look after yourself and your family. There are better jobs and companies out there.
@em It is exactly this for me.
Starting to sound like a lot of people aren’t really choosing to stay. They’re just waiting for something better to come along. That’s a pretty big difference.
I suspect many are hoping for a reorg that makes sense and leadership that is not maliciously incompetent.
It probably will not happen with the current board of directors.
Sometimes staying isn’t loyalty. It’s just the point where updating your resume feels like more work than surviving another reorg 😂
Because there’s no other jobs?
what a stxpid question there!
Considering what the 5-day commute is now costing me in time and gas, I’d leave for less for hybrid or even just something closer to home.
