With the current economic outlook and some of the whispers going around, I've started thinking more seriously about having a backup plan if things get dicey at Waste Management. For those who have been through this at other companies or are actively exploring options, what's your advice? Updating the resume, networking, brushing up on skills? Are there specific departments or roles within WM that seem more secure, or conversely, more vulnerable? I'm not looking for specific layoff numbers or dates, just general preparedness strategies. It feels prudent to be proactive rather than reactive. Any tips on how to make a transition smoother if it comes to that would be greatly appreciated.

It's prudent to consider contingency plans, especially given the current climate. Focusing on skills that are transferable and demonstrating value in core operational areas is always a good bet. Staying informed about industry trends and maintaining a strong professional network can provide valuable insights and opportunities, whether within the company or elsewhere. Proactive career management is key in any economic cycle.
