I've been feeling anxious at work lately because my company has been laying off employees in small groups every quarter. Recently, I learned from a coworker that some people from our team in the same state were let go, but we weren't given any details about it. When she asked our boss, we were reassured that our department was safe, but I can't shake the feeling that I might be next. It seems like the company is struggling financially, and I wish I knew if those who were laid off received severance packages and how that might vary based on tenure. It's a tough situation, and I feel like I need to prepare for the worst.
