The oil and gas energy is going through some rough times. The company I work for recently announced impending layoffs. I learned today that I will be laid off once the divestitures are final (near the end of this year).
I was not surprised that I would get laid off because I had been open with my discontent. I was surprised though that they wanted to keep me employed until the end of the year even though I don't deal directly with the divestitures.
I was hoping to leave and move on with my life. Of course, if I leave now, I will not be offered a severance package. How do I deal with colleagues knowing I am "let go" but still working for a few more months? I am not looking forward to the coming months. Please share if you have an experience with layoffs + continuance of working.
