I would like your advice

For those who chose to leave after a reorganization and successfully landed a new role—how did you approach it?

This reorganization has been incredibly draining. I’m grateful to still be employed, but I’ve taken on responsibilities that are scoped nearly three grade levels above my current role, and I’m realizing it’s time to move more strategically.

I’m open to contract work and seriously considering submitting my two weeks once I have a solid transition plan. I’m feeling depleted, but I know I need to start taking steps toward something better.

For those who have made this kind of move, what helped you navigate the transition?

I would save a financial cushion if you can. This can be the difference from feeling trapped to empowered and in control. Download the past 2-4 annual reviews to mine for resume bullets. Take a few days off just to clear your mind and update your resume. Talk to recruiters.

@a8 You are right and I needed to see this. Thank you.

@ag Thank you and congrats to you.

I felt the same way but was laid off begining of this year. Got a lower grade job exernally ,but a much better culture. I don't feel stressed at the end of the day. I'm hoping I can move up in my new company.

Apply for a lot of jobs. Something will workout
