Nick buddy, sorry to hear this information, I know it was not that long ago that you got this job and had to leave your previous job.
I'll keep my ears open for you, however, Principal as you know is in a job freeze and has recently let 300 people go in our Downtown operations, 13 in my IT area alone. I've heard another sweep is coming. Some of my best friends with 20+ years with the company and great SR level IT jobs were cut....
This really is a bad time, let me know if there is anything I can do to help...
