Had The Talk(tm) with Human Resources today. The Holding Company is divesting itself of a significant portion of its assets (which I knew) and there will be major organizational shifts to come, which is to say that 1/2 to 2/3 of the staff will be released to go on to bigger and better things, or whatever.

It appears that I have a choice. Roll off, take a significant severance package (though no numbers were discussed, so I can't say how significant "significant" is), and find another job, potentially as soon as March, or stay on, and essentially become the MIS and HR departments, at a significantly increased pay rate (again, no numbers).

With a much-reduced staff and much-reduced interests, reasonably, absorbing these two functions would not increase my workload by much at all, as most of my current job function would also disappear into the ether. However, should the Company decide to acquire other assets (as it likely would eventually), I'd probably move into one or the other department as its head, (which is somewhat alarming to me - I'm perfectly capable of performing the functions of either of these departments, but I'm not sure I care for the concept that people might report to me).

Bleh. So apparently, I need to come to a decision on this within the next few weeks. Slack and take severence, or take a raise and a new job? Don't know. This would be a lot easier if there had been some numbers attached to these options.
