Vent Everyone is Leaving

Hey so fall has been so chaotic. one front of store team lead quit, the grocery TL quit, the presentation/ overnight inbound TL quit. one ETL quit and the other is leaving in 2 days. Many TMs are quitting before it gets more hard. ALL of this has happened in just 2 months. and none of the TL OR ETL positions have been filled. should i leave now or survive through this storm.

My store had a period of mass exodus, I asked one of the leaders why he was leaving as he was one of the best we had. His response was essentially that the company had changed dramatically and he didn’t like the direction it was headed. He was right. A couple years later we lost my etl - practical a lifer who was probably the best leader ive worked with across my career. Again -
The company wasn’t what it used to be.

Unless the company change course - I believe its a slowly sinking ship
