I have a problem. I have been working at no name company for like 4 years. Always wanted to get into Big Tech. I finally was able to clear microsoft interview and currently in bg check after tthen h1b transfer.
I am really proud that I got in and msft will do perm and gc fast as well.

But whenever I get an offer I always thing something bad is going to happen to my employment at the company. Like i will join and be part of layoff if economy or org tanks. Fact I am being in Atlanta while some members are in Redmond don't help.

I spend time reading and researching economy indicators which is of no use since I can't control the economy. I am not sure what to do. Do i just renege when I get a good job and live in fear till I become a gc holder. I am row. Current employer had initiated gc but timeliness are so bad that I don't lose much time by switching.

My confidence is always low. Everyone I talk to said msft is as safe as you can get but still I live in fear of rif or layoff or pip in recession.
