Has anyone been successful in negotiating more severance? I’ve been offered a month, but I don’t think I can survive just on it. Only have 2 months saved up.

How many of us would be immediately fired if our mute button malfunctioned? 🙋‍♀️

Layoffs

A friend 🐠 was fired for accidentally sending confidential info to the wrong client and is worried about her chances of landing a new gig. How much should she tell the prospective employer about it?

Could people share some “I got laid off and it turned out to be great” stories? Granted I’m sure none of those stories involve being laid off in a global pandemic like I just was.

Shots fired at Ft Lauderdale airport.

As opposed to forcing layoffs, could a firm just request their employees to go on sabbatical for reduced pay?

Feel like im firmly in the layoff crosshairs and i am now in a massive funk

Terrible at time compliance ... an I going to get fired?

With so many layoffs and the strange uncertainty of this industry right now—is anyone scared to death?

When it comes to layoffs do you think parents are considered safe because they have mouths to feed or it doesn’t matter?

How many of you are still unemployed from last year lay offs? Interested to learn more about folks who were laid off and what they are doing.

Got a weird meeting request from creative manager and HR entitled “team rating mini master.” No clue what that means, but in a sea of recent layoffs/ 45 day notices, I’m expecting the worst. Thoughts?

Regarding layoffs, would anyone accept a pay cut to keep their current position? I wonder if that’s a viable solution when you have to cut costs, but also want to keep reasonably talented people.

One of my senior managers is a boomerang and told me she was laid off when she was 7 months pregnant about 10 years ago. I think she was a senior or manager. She was in a specific group and everybody was laid off. It wasn’t performance based. Would you work at your company again if you were laid off?

Intern hire set to start Oct (Healthcare/MC)... All the layoff posts have me a bit concerned, and has me considering other options. Am I overreacting?

Has the person you want to see get fired been let go?

Is it common to get fired (performance related) without seeing it coming? I'd assume there would be advance warning/discussions with managers and leads, but just curious. I always feel like I'm...

At ACN, who actually tells you you are getting laid off? HR, your CC, or Partner or a combo? Just checking for a friend of mine.

For those who got laid off/ left how long did it take for you to receive your Contribution back from the ESP?

Thoughts from NRIs / anyone based overseas on how to go about splitting investments between home country (citizen) and place of residence ? -Single - Male - 30y - from India and based in Singapore -No plans of returning to India anytime soon. Only needs are to have a safety stop, pay a mortgage and expenses for parents health - Aiming to settle down outside of India and pretty much starting from scratch here. How have people moving abroad to re-start their lives & career approached this issue?

Has anyone transitioned from Big 4 tax to a PE firm? If so, how did you do it?

Hi Everyone, New hire in DC here. Which dental and health plan is the best for fresh college grad? Thx

Is an MBA worth it? I’m in track for an IT Audit Manager position in the next couple years, have Big 4 experience, and am satisfied with the idea of staying in audit for the foreseeable future (but open to other risk relate roles). Is an MBA going to do anything for me as I look to move up in the audit world in the future? Or should I just focus on doing quality work and not waste my time with an MBA?

ATL 🐠. Does anybody have insight, connection, etc, into Coke? Interested in experience, culture, pay, pace, and etc.

When you’re 80 and on your death bed, what do you think would be some regrets you’ll have? I think mine would be I wish I came out earlier and was more confident in talking to people.

Describe your firm's culture. For those of you that have worked for at least 2 of the B4, how are they different?

Thoughts about operations manager role at Uber?

My current role is work from home and it will be extended past February. Any cool cities you guys recommend moving to since I have that flexibility?

Are paid case interview coaches worth it? For context, I practiced with peers out of undergrad and managed to land ATK / final rounds at all the T2s but didn’t get past round one for either BB. I recently had a final round case interview in industry where the feedback was that my structure was great but I stumbled on the math. Interviewing with MBB in 3 weeks and now questioning if I need more help?
