It's because of loyalty and ethics that many stay. However, when that is not given back to you it's a sure sign to go. Leadership has been instructed to treat the employees in such a way that they feel devalued. The climate now is absolutely horrible. Now knowing there will be no severance...why continue to be sp-t on??? Think of the hostile environment today as a gift and get out. It will get worse before it gets better. When you're finally out and happier, even making less perhaps, because you're treated like a human being, you will wonder why you rolled around in the cr-p so long.
