Layoffs

Laid off after Thanksgiving. 54. Not done yet. Plenty to offer. In Detroit but ready and able to move anywhere. AD/CD. Hangin in there. How bout you?

I'm thinking I won't be getting promoted if not laid off at the end Q2 or sooner. What are some good exit ops for an associate with 2 yoe in tech consulting? Exp in Cloud, PMO, IT Risk, and SoD.

Agency laid off all producers, is now having BA produce. BA texts laid off employees for vendor recs. 🙄 (the eye roll is at the agency, not the BA manager who didn’t sign up for this...)

Consumer spending is way down. Ad agencies are having layoffs. Are we the canary in the coal mine for a larger nationwide trend? Should I be buying gold or just take off my tinfoil hat?

I haven't seen an AdAge or AdWeek news story about the work in over 6 months (sans Superbowl). All industry news is aquesitions or layoffs... Just me?

Ways to survive being unemployed? Recently got laid off

WFH/Layoff/Security
Hi,
CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.
Is it worth looking for another opportunity?
I am afraid after seeing layoffs news of EPAM, Publicis Sapient & most of the other companies calling employees in the office.
I love my WFH in PwC India & base location of Kolkata. & the best thing is stability in PwC India, they never lay off!!

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!

So far I’ve seen posts about EY, KPMG, and BDO’s upcoming comp reductions. Curious if other firms have made similar announcements? Can’t imagine anyone will be immune to this, just hoping no layoffs

Has anyone heard of Big 4 TAS layoffs?

So I got laid off. Have minimal savings - had been redirecting most of my salary to pay off student debt. What options exist to borrow in the short term at low interest?

Does a severance usually come with a lack of work letter? (Big4)

My firm pays staff & seniors hourly, with 1.5x pay for overtime. Firm just cut our hours from the normal 58-60 down to 40 a week for the foreseeable future. Should I be concerned about layoffs?

I have friends and networks who have been affected by layoffs from Amazon and other orgs. There is light at the end of the tunnel all. But on the side something happened when I tried to use my amazon alexa.
Me: Alexa what does the future look like?Alexa: The future is not looking good for the economy right now with all the big layoffs, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Me: Alexa where can I find the end of that tunnel?
Alexa: I am also looking for it just if you find it.
Me: 🤔

Hearing worrying *layoff rumours from ex-colleagues at ACN. Can someone confirm?

Dear fb community.... Have there been any layoffs of PWC recently?

Recruiter reached out about opportunity with mobile gaming startup - 100K starting comp with promise of significant raise 1 year in. Said they fired last person cause they wouldn't put in the CONT....

When I was at Accenture I thought ACN Strategy was the top of the top but I didn’t go to a fancy school so imagine how hard it was to network my way in. Then they stopped transfers because of COVID and I was laid off despite all of the good reviews I had calling for me to be promoted. I was almost happy with 100k just to be a senior analyst in Strategy.

Today I just signed my offer at a tier 2 firm and I’m making over 180k. Thank you Accenture for the lay off. EVERYONE KEEP PUSHING!!!!!!!!

Anyone here have military TSP experience? My active duty spouse maxed out his Roth TSP for the year last month at 19.5 but they’re still taking money out. Last year and years prior the deductions always auto-shut off on their own once the limit was reached. What gives? Has anyone experienced this? How hard will it be to get that money back?
*it’s the plan with no match

I’m at a point in my mid-late 30s where up until now I’ve always had a slim/slender figure (I workout a lot and eat well for the most part). However now as I age I’m struggling between gaining some weight (goes first to my hips/thighs and THEN face) and losing that figure I have worked hard for to put some weight on my face and decrease that gaunt look. Anyone else struggle with this? (Sorry for the somewhat superficial post).
