My boss had to pull three of us into a conference room to basically tell us to stop trying to quit over the mandates and testing requirements. I was really glad to have some leadership who had my back during that time, but I had already drafted up an exit plan to hand off all my work and was ready to walk.
Having enough money in the bank to be able to not work for a year or two helps with that. I just hope I can retain that will to walk away once they start zeroing out bank accounts for wrongthink.
Once you have enough money in the bank to not work for a year or two, you should also work to acquire enough money at home to not have to work for at least a few months.

Always be ready to walk
