June 9th Cuts - Anyone Else Feel Like a Number?

Just got the notification today, June 9th. Honestly, blindsided doesn't even begin to cover it. I've been putting in the hours, hitting my numbers, and thought I was doing well. Then boom, email out of nowhere. Was there any warning? Any hint this was coming? My manager has been radio silent. Is this company even real anymore, or just a spreadsheet of names? Feels like they're just trimming the fat without any regard for the people who built this place. Seriously questioning my career choices right now. Anyone else in the same boat and feeling completely lost?

Totally feel you. That email hit like a ton of bricks for a lot of us too. It's incredibly demoralizing when you've dedicated yourself and feel like your contributions just don't matter. The silence from management is deafening and really makes you wonder about the values the company supposedly upholds. It's hard to stay motivated when you feel like a disposable asset rather than a valued team member. This situation has definitely sparked some serious reconsideration about where my career is headed.

It's rough out there, man. That feeling of being blindsided is the worst, especially after putting in the effort and thinking you're on solid ground. The lack of communication is what really stings – makes you feel like you're just a line item on a P&L sheet. It's a tough pill to swallow when the people who helped build the company are treated this way. Hang in there, and hopefully, you can find a place that truly values your hard work and dedication.
