It’s a tech apocalypse out there from a layoff standpoint.
Worst I’ve seen in my professional career.

Sorry to hear man, I'm in the same boat as you but two weeks ahead. Take some time off for yourself, take it as a blessing in disguise, and move onto a company that actually cares about you

Hopefully you aren’t tied up with a non-compete.
He was laid off. No non-competes are going to be valid after a layoff - not unless he had sold a company to them, or something like that.

I thought this same thing, but I recently had a friend that was laid off. Out of the blue, huge layoff by her company.
Shortly after, she got a good offer from a different company, and the prior company said they would enforce the non compete. I told her I was pretty sure it was BS. But she said she went to any attorney, and they can still pursue it. And even if she could win, the hiring company probably won't hire her knowing that the NC will be pursued.
I think it's absolutely garbage and a shitty thing to do. But according to her, it is still valid after a lay off.

Good luck. You have the right attitude. I would guess that when this is all said and done, you're gonna actually be much happier somewhere else. Enjoy your break.
