@e7 I agree that most likely OP will get PIP'd before they even consider them for a layoff. I was PIP'd myself and ended up being axed; EVEN while working extra hours in the evenings, and weekends for the many years I was there (and still being asked to do more). Imagine only doing half the work (that's just my assumption based off of what OP shared about balancing two full time jobs).

Up until now, I had no idea this was a thing being "overemployed". Not sure how Gen Z'ers do it.

You’ll probably get PIP’d before you get laid off.

Heard a rumor that a number of SEs will be laid off in 2026. Leaders are going to try to replace those positions with AI. TII and roles in the US will be impacted.

All I can say is keep J2 in good standing.
