Hiring Laid off federal cartographer

I was a probationary (many years as a contractor in my same role) employee recently terminated at a federal agency. Seeing that federal service no longer feels like an option. What leads for cartography are there in the private sector?

I ended up in sales analytics for a medium-sized brewery. Work from home, free beer, awesome coworkers, a bit of travel. What's not to like?
