    Always remember when there is a massive leadership shakeup - you are not safe. They have their own people, they are there because the last person fucked up (in their eyes). Never believe anything they say, you are not safe in your position.

    They won’t do it immediately. The first 90 days is them only observing, then at 6 months they have a plan. 6-12 months they’ll be implementing their new plans. Never feel safe because “they’ve been here a couple of months and it’s fine”.

      Heh,I learned this one the hard way. Thought I was safe because I cooperated and provided them all kinds of info, and I was rising up through management. But nope, they didn’t give a damn about loyalty or anything, they just wanted a fresh slate and cut all kinds of people.

        I feel you, I had a similar case. At the end of the day you’re a line in a spreadsheet. Taught myself early that no matter how connected you are with a company, it doesn’t matter at all. Family, friends, they matter. Work to live, because work will throw you away tomorrow if they want to. Your family will always be there.
