I think the macro economic environment has really spooked companies over the past 18months when it comes to adjusting headcount. Hopefully 2024 will be better?

I am lucky enough to still have a decent position. I have real sympathy for all those who have been laid off in the past year, it's gotta be tough.

Laid off twice in 12 months. I hate life.
