So a few weeks ago the company I work for notified all 30 of our team that we are all being laid off.
About 2.5 weeks later I am told by HR that they have changed their mind and that they want to keep me on and that I will be the only one in my team being kept on.
I don’t know how to feel about this, i’m devastated for the rest of the team and pissed off at the company messing me around as I’ve already wasted time and had interviews for other companies now. At the same time it’s obviously a massive weight off my shoulders too so I consider myself very lucky as well.
If this was you what would you do? It’s hard to feel motivated to work for this company at the click of their fingers I could be gone. Am I right to feel conflicted and frustrated?
EDIT
Just for some clarification, when I said they decided they wanted to keep me on, I was not laid off at this point. My lay off date was in the future so essentially what they’ve done is just cancel the lay off and ask me to forget what happened so as far as I know i’m not entitled any severance in this case.
