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!!

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 was laid off from Deloitte in the 18th. I have an interview with Amazon for a Senior Program Managers Non Technical position with Amazon hiring manager on Monday. Any advice would be much appreciated. I would love to get into Amazon. I hear their interview process is brutal.

Pre-COVID you were promised a raise to come in June to accompany the smaller raise and promotion you got in January. Now, your company is like every other company - combating layoffs and going through raise and hiring freezes; which makes the opportunity for that raise look pretty impossible. The thing is, the job you’re doing is at least two levels above what your promotion brought you to and you feel like you’re doing twice the work for half the pay. What do you do?

Is now really a good time to be switching jobs? Especially going into a big market like NYC? Fears of a recession making me reconsider whether I should grow where I am or move down to NYC but run the risk of being the first laid off in the case that the economy goes bust

Deloitte S&O consulting laid off ~7% at the end of May (following a previous layoff in February). Any other firms experiencing layoffs?

If you have a few co-workers as friends on FB, and post your political preference for the election, can you get fired / let go? I didn't discuss with anyone, just posted a couple obvious links.

Let's cool it with the layoff threads team. Consulting is up or out and the business model depends on 15-20% churn to work. Unless you're seeing 1 in 5 people quitting expect some firings every year

Laid off from a boutique in SF after a year. Had to move home, no savings, and student loans up the wazoo. I don’t know when I’ll be employed next. Any tips for getting through this dark time?

Net worth < $1m: Fired.

$2-$5m: Resigned.

$6-10m: Exploring other opportunities.

$11-20m: Taking some time to spend with family.

$20-$99m Don’t want to create further distractions.

> $100m: Settled with regulators without admitting or denying wrongdoing.

Do firms provide any severance pay / support if you are getting pushed out due to low chargeability?

Where did the senior consultants (post mba) you know, end up after being laid off this winter/spring? Was it easy or hard for them to find jobs?

I’m super strong on art/design but rarely got a chance to flex the conceptual side. I got laid off and that issue isn’t playing in my favor. How do I convince CDs i’m emailing to take a chance on me?

If layoffs come back, when should we expect them? Are we safe for the first year of we are doing well?

Recession? Thoughts? Who was around in 2009? Half of my class got laid off

Accounting is my new career but I have a prior work experience where I didn’t have to track my hours per client, project, etc. Ever since I was an audit intern, I had a hard time filing out my timesheet. I tend to jump from one section of the audit to another reviewing mostly at first and then kind of completing all at once. I feel pressure to have enough billable hours from performance point of view but also pressure from partners not to go over budget so I mostly split my time with training...

I’m currently working with a senior level HR candidate. This individual has a doctorate in business with a focus in HR, her SPHR, Federal, and private sector experience at the singer level, and has a fabulous personality. I’m curious is anyone else having difficulties play some candidates like this? At this point I’m starting to think it’s racial or her sex based of the lack of interest in this candidate. Any thoughts?

Hey recruiters and professionals, I set up a coffee chat with a colleague on the FP&A team at my company for later this week. These are the topics I plan to cover: their journey to the company, challenges the team is facing/what a junior analyst would face, what skills I should be working on, and who I should be connecting with to land a role on the team. Question to the audience, what specific questions should I be asking to get a better understanding of the team/make a good first impression?
