Recent layoffs in the tech and gaming industry have significantly impacted several major companies. For instance, Microsoft announced 1,900 layoffs, Riot Games 530, Unity 1,800, Twitch 500, and Epic Games 800, among others.
This situation has led me to reassess my perspective on workplace loyalty. From now on, my approach will be purely transactional: I will fulfill the tasks assigned to me efficiently and expect fair compensation in return. I am not inclined to engage beyond my defined role or responsibilities. My focus is on delivering the required output as per the agreement, like a robot, without involving myself in matters beyond my scope of work.
