Day 9 to being laid off from work

I was on a contract role since last 3 months for a technical image Moderation project whose client was Adobe and worked from office in Vashi, Navi Mumbai I was low key hoping that my contract will converted to full-time position but on the 23rd of June while I was doing night shift at work, was told to leave early and meet HR next morning where I was finally told that the client didn't want to continue my career with them And from then on, I've been at home relentlessly applying for roles but nothing works so great So stressed out don't know what to do as I see only a dark road ahead with zero hope

..."Good morning", "Good afternoon", "Good evening", and if possible, "Good night". Remarkably these actions, more than actual job performance, are touted as the key to promotion and a substantial salary increase. It's noteworthy that mastering office politics, engaging in backbiting, and merely being present take precedence over task accomplishment.

Compensation is way below that of its peers. Managers are not valued despite spending 12 to 14 hours. Also, whenever manager compensation-related questions come up management simply gives a reply which doesn't justify. There is no work-life balance for managers as we have to handle the India team as well as the US counterparts. We work 12-14 hours daily. Also, most of the time I go to meetings with very little time to learn and upskill. Because of these, it becomes really hard to grow.
