Risk of getting laid off again in 6 months

In a nutshell, should I put a 2-month job on my resume, if this kind of role is what I want to keeping doing as I look for new jobs?


Background:


I was laid off from a FAS analyst role in March (NYC) because of a revenue skydiving.Then I transitioned into a product manager role in a crypto company in August, creating more of a traditional fintech product.

Was super excited as I made the transition. Motivated and have been doing a great job. 

However, this morning, my department head, who is also the VP of the company, told us he got into a couple really bad fights with the CEO in terms of what the fuck the CEO has been thinking and doing, and how the CEO mismanages his company. What happens next is the CEO is pulling resources away from my boss, who is now depressed. The situation is bad. My department might get dissolved --- that would be another lay-off in half a year. 

3/4 interviewers warned me (excluding the VP. I think he could improve on his way of managing people a bit) about "management chaos". They didn't specify, but this is my fault for not thinking hard.


Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
