Everybody out of the pool....
Or should I say "all rats off the sinking ship". Big Faceless is going through some rough stuff. Lots of people are finding their way to the door, both in advance of and now after the "letting go of fall 2007". It's sad that they're losing really good resources with institutional knowledge. When the idiocy is over, getting *anyone* to fill those spots is going to be costly. Getting good folks who know what they're doing is going to be more so.
I know people leaving for the same pay (but better stability), taking less and leaving with no solid prospects.
Have to wonder how long is too long to stay on?

You could look at it that way, or you could choose to be unconventional. When the dust settles, it's going to be a seller's ( seller being the person selling their services ) market. Profit takers are always the ones who get opportunistic when "the market" chooses to swing to or fro. Now would be a good time for you to make yourself even more visible and irreplacable.
Those who are retained are either...
1. Have a skill where they are in the top 1% of all comers.
2. Have two skills in the top 80% of everyone.
Unless you're Michael Jordan, I'd suggest that you quickly and voraciously advertise your second 80th percentile skill.
