Do you agree? Last year, one of the most buzzed-about trends was The Great Betrayal, defined by employees having grown to feel that workplace #stability and employer loyalty are a fantasy, and that workers who bet on themselves and rent out their skills across a range of clients tend to be better off. A recent survey of 1,000 knowledge workers by the members-only product builders network A.Team found that those sentiments are becoming even more entrenched following the recent wave of #layoffs, particularly at tech companies, leading many to go from merely complementing their full-time jobs with side gigs to ditching the staff job altogether.

The news has been filled with reports of layoffs. Over 150 technology companies alone have bid farewell to nearly 40,000 employees. It's undoubtedly tough to be one of those who have lost their jobs. It may be even harder for workers between the ages of 40 and 65 who have been unemployed for over six months, particularly those with higher education. Unfortunately, data shows that the most experienced job seekers are at a disadvantage when it comes to finding new employment. #layoffs #ageism #jobseeker #shellihermansearch #executivesearch #ageisanumber

Concerned about potential layoffs? My diary is always open to discuss the opportunities within the Quant space. One notable aspect is its immunity to layoffs! Moreover, you would significantly boost your current compensation (potentially doubling it), gain more ownership and autonomy, and experience a career progression based on meritocracy rather than time spent in company. Drop me a message, and I'd be happy to provide more information. #quantfinance #layoffs #bigtech
