I’ve been the pain I in the ass who was kept on until I quit for a better job, and I’ve also been the overly available, underpaid, overtime worker who got laid off.
Upper management is totally blind to which employees are valuable. Now I’m just myself. I focus on career, my skills, networking, and keep an eye on the job postings every now and then.
Yeah I suppose that depends on the outfit. Maybe you need a minimum of goodwill and strategic alignment from those around you.
At least you’ll get quality references from quality people over time. When I was laid off I had a tonne of heat references and contacts to help me out because they knew who I was based on how I acted when we worked together.
