Honestly, I’ve been hoping to get laid off for a long time because I don’t want to miss severance pay. In my case, it's now no longer worth waiting for severance pay. Got a very interesting job offer that would be less paid but more challenging.
Here, however, it all comes down to simple, routinized work that totally demotivates me. It seems that this company can no longer offer challenging, engaging work???

Be careful what you wish for with "challenging, engaging work" . Take it from me who's been working at startups for 7 years and would do anything to be in your position.
I know the feeling. I have been hanging out for a number of years, waiting to get the severance. But it just does not seem worth it anymore. Will be looking around for new opps regardless.
