I'm just trying to provide a little motivation to those affected. I was laid off in October of 2020 during the first round, right after the merger was approved. It took a few months but I eventually landed doing the same work at another firm for 10% more in pay and with shorter work hours. My advice is this. Apply for unemployment, polish your resume and then use Indeed and LinkedIn to market yourself. It worked for me and I hope it works for you. Trust me. You WILL be better off a year from now.

Agreed. Schwab is bottom of the barrel. For those not let go, they are selling themselves short staying at this pathetic company.
Not to be negative but job market is very tough right now. Even for small no name companies I can see hundreds of applicants lining up on Indeed. Hopefully the situation can improve by next year.
huge difference between the state of the job market in 2020/2021 vs 2023/2024. everyone will be expendable very soon, even yourself.
