The thing that most people lose track of is that, at the end of the day, the corporation needs good people more than the people need a specific corporation...

I have been in this sort of situation a number of times, and have managed to dodge the bullet by going out BEFORE being laid off, and finding a job, and then going to management, and saying that as much as I LOVE this place, and do not want to leave, I must, unless I get a guarantee, in writing, that I will not be laid off for at least a year.   I got the guarantee in one case, and in the other, got to walk out (to a new job) a week ahead of when I would have been laid off.

The concept is best described as being pro-active, or Carpe Diem?
