I started months ago. The problem is, it’s just slim pickings out there. I’ve managed to land exactly one offer, and it was such a lowball it barely felt real. The job hunt itself is wearing me down more than I expected. Trying to stay motivated when nothing solid turns up is exhausting. If anyone has had a good experience, please share. We all need some encouragement right now.

@ch In 99% of cases your manager says he/she does not know anything.
I wouldn't take a worse offer just out of fear. Do you think you'll be safe if the next company also starts layoffs? Build some experience and take something better when you get it. Don't take a step down.
@ch do you think this is a good idea? I have the offer but need non-compete waiver
Talk frankly to your manager and ask if layoffs for your group are done. Everybody can feel vulnerable, especially newly hired or underperformers.
