Expect to be fired. That’s, unfortunately, the labor market reality.


Labor market reality's also that everyone's falling over themselves to hire developers. Won't last, but that's what's up right now.


Depends highly on the employee's value to the company.

Also, if the employee has very marketable skills, they may be happy to leave a job whose hourly rate has suddenly dropped.


I'm still waiting, 5+ years later...


we're pretty close to full employment. lots of industries are job-seekers' markets right now. which doesn't mean that management recognizes this and wouldn't do something stupid like fire a good worker, but that doesn't have a lot to do with the labor market.
