The amount of dread I'm feeling ahead of work finally made me realize that while being unemployed is bad, being unhappily employed is worse. I've been trying to find a new job outside of WD for a while with no luck, but I don't even care anymore. I have enough in savings to be able to afford to quit before I find something new. For once, I'm going to prioritize my mental health.

how long have you been ready to walk away. and stayed?
Yea, I left recently and joined the health industry. Bye bye mamufacturing, it was bittersweet. Everyone needs IT and Healthcare, except WD...
@kcy+1o6nLJL1, is there going to be another layoffs in 2 months? Please do share. Thanks!
Don't give away 4 months worth of free salary. Just wait a couple of months.
I would suggest go for a long vacation.
Good luck!
Have you tried applying to jobs in different industries? I was at WD for 5 years and was laid off in May. Then I got out of tech and and into Automotive. Couldn't be happier!
Bye, bye
