My new job just cut my salary by $30k, only a couple months into the job. I was making $65k and now I’m making $35k LOL.

I signed the new contract at the $35k salary because I don’t want to be unemployed but this isn’t enough to live on. I have student loans. I live in a not cheap city and am now paying 80%+ of my paycheck on rent and utilities.

Do y’all think I owe a 2 week notice or can I just quit as soon as I get a new job offer? This is insane and I’m in shock right now. But I also plan to stay in this industry/city and don’t want my company to talk badly of me.
