Wtf dude. Take a breath, everyone is getting laid off. Don't blame yourself, that's a road to hell you don't want to go down right now.

- harrisonjackson 7y agoYep - this was my gut feeling also. It isn't a bad time to reflect and improve yourself but I wouldn't take it personally. From your OP, I'd say... - grow a much thicker skin - form and share your opinion more often - actively seek out other leaders at your level or above to see how you can improve _something_ (this is often just watercooler/gossip for leaders/managers but it is part of the game) - take a more active part in guiding the team processes If you really just feel comfortable as a developer then just guide the development process - help create/iterate on/enforce style guides and other development pieces. You can do this with very little people leadership skills but still have a visible impact on an organization.
- dontbeunethical 7y agoI was laid off and they hired 2 college grads. It's clear I was getting paid too much.
