Our company is going through restructuring. Things have not been easy; we have lost part of our best performers. I am not too sure if I will keep my job as there is less communication. Though the bosses have asked for voluntary resignation, I do not want to lose this job. We have until mid-next month to make up our minds. Please help

It is sad to hear of the uncertainties and anxieties that you are going through at your workplace. It is sad also to hear that your job is at risk and not because of mistakes of your own making. It is heartbreaking to hear that the restructuring has caught you off-guard and that you are not ready to quit.
