If you've read any of my previous work-related posts you'd know that I am actively interviewing and that I do not like my job. The company is offering a buyout program for staff. I would get 5 months continued salary, health insurance, and they'd still contribute to my 401k in that period. I have to decide by mid-January and once I say yes I have a month and a half to reconsider. They mention that their may be layoffs in the future.

I'm really thinking I should take it, although I am nervous about it.

What would you do?
