First off I am really sorry to hear it.
I debated starting a separate thread on this back in February when it happened, but after 26 years my employer did a "job realignment", the three individuals in my position that made the most for the company and hence were paid the largest bonuses were "job eliminated". All of us were over 45 and represented a growing list of experienced individuals this new "President" has let go to hire cheaper talent from outside the industry.
I was crushed, I had put my heart and soul into that company, when I stated the group that I was in we were about $100M in revenue and last year were $1.4B.... It didn't matter, if you weren't one of the chosen few and played tennis like the CEO and his minions, you were looked down upon. The days of making your numbers (I exceeded prior year profit by almost 30%) were gone, and the do as I say and not as I do crowd are leading that company into the toilet.
I have just started with a new company and could not be happier.
Hang in there and LinkedIn is your friend right now.
