Senior Manager

I was placed on PIP due to unavailable projects... and right before my pip period was about the end, I got placed on a project. is it weird I was hoping to get fired and get my severance package?

Sitting alone at home (single) knowing if I’m on the list I’ll never get hired again. And not enough savings for the next three years let alone forty. Decision makers: when you lay somebody off you are condemning them to years of unemployment. fight not to do it.

What day did you get laid off? I feel like layoffs always happen on a Tuesday.

I'm on an engagement and a manager jokingly told a new associate "you're fired" and the associate jokingly said back "f*** you". Do you think that was appropriate? Should that get held against her?

Are MBB doing layoffs?

How do background checks work with a potential employer? Is it just contacting deloittHR and verifying employment dates and title? I’m guessing HR can’t say anything about performance or layoffs, etc?

Just had a client put a big m&a deal on hold indefinitely. Seeing this as a broader trend- investors selling, freezes on new deals. Worried we’ll see layoffs in our group soon. Anyone else?

Does layoff information appear on background checks done by future employers?

Have layoffs already begun at Richards Group? Unrelated, but not really: Know of an opening in creative? Post it here.

Tips on how to feel content at current firm again after going through rounds of interviews and not getting an offer?

I was promoted in January and promised to get a raise sometime in the summer. Due to Covid we all got 10% pay cuts instead. When is a good time to bring this up? I should add we’ve been hiring people (5 people in my department alone) and winning new business.
