Did anyone get a WARN notice?, software tester here

I received a formal notice about a mass layoff at my workplace. It has been weighing on me all week. They offered a retention bonus for people who stay. Has anyone been through this?

I stayed for the retention bonus and looked for work on the side. It cushioned the gap.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
