Good pay and flexibility, but toxic management issues

Pros

The job was work from home primarily with some in-office days required, so I was able to have flexibility for my family and a good work-life balance. The pay for the position was also very good.

Cons

After our staff holiday gathering where it was expressed how every member of the team was appreciated and they were doing well financially, my position was eliminated. No other positions were eliminated. I also had a very difficult supervisor who was very condescending and unsupportive. When I asked for help or asked questions to find solutions to problems it was met with condescending attitude. She was incredibly unprofessional and the worst thing about the job - to the point that I had been looking for a different job before I was let go because of the effect this supervisor's behavior was having on my mental health.
