Yup, I know an engineering director who had a similar story. It took him about 8 months to find a new job. He did ultimately get another engineering director

- horsawlarway 7y agoWhich is fairly common, and often why compensation packages for folks in those positions are structured the way they are. The assumption is that someone leaving a director/VP level position will not find another job quickly. They often have severance agreements that provide either large lump sum payouts to cover them while they look, or multi-month notice that they're being let go (I've seen 3 months and 12 months, with the expectation being that they'll continue in an advisory position and draw salary during that time, but focus mostly on job hunting).
