Thread regarding Citrix Systems Inc. layoffs

What would you do if you got 6 months all expenses paid layoff package

just curious what you all would do if you got a 6 month all expenses paid up front one time payment (including COBRA medical premiums paid up front for 6 months, all RSUs in the 6 month window vested).

would you all

  • go on a world cruise

  • get a job right away and pocket the 6 month payment

  • sleep for 5 months and then get a job

  • retire

  • reinvent yourselves and switch to another job family

  • sell your home and move to a cheaper state

After the October event , even in south florida I was able to get a job fairly quickly so did put some extra cash away for the next rainy day. Would never have been able to do it without the citrix layoff bonus.

The new ELT clowns have destroyed the once great company.
