Layoffs across my industry, where did you pivot? (Wichita)

Our sector has been shrinking and I am unsure if I should wait it out. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I have transferable skills but no direct experience elsewhere. Who has switched fields?

Talk to people in the field you are considering. Two coffee chats changed my mind about one option.

I moved into operations work. The skills carried over and there were more openings than in my old field.
