Layoffs

Tired of this constant grind and constant layoff situation in NYC. Thinking of making the move to LA. Any thoughts? Yay or nay?

If you were making 120k base in NYC and got laid off, how much will you get for unemployment?

Got my PwC severance package today deposited...much larger than I calculated...I know I had s lot of accrued vacation but it was deposited in two oddly large amounts

Edelman lays off 5% of staff domestically. 50% of data and analytics team laid off in NY. Clearly decision makers understand the industry and what’s valuable (intuition > data)

Is anyone worried about layoffs?

Am I the only one that despite doing a pretty good job, am constantly concerned about randomly getting fired? lol

Seeing all these “got laid off” posts and I’m honestly surprised. Which firms are laying people off? Thought every firm had staff shortages.

How long did it take for you to find an exit? 1YOE and my company (boutique) is struggling, so I’m looking to leave ASAP, and getting worried I won’t find something before our next round of layoffs

LA, what's good? I know basically every agency out here had layoffs last year, so is anyone looking to hire a mid-level AD?

Rumor is high number of partner layoffs coming - can anyone confirm / deny or provide details?

People realize the recession is only just starting right? So far we have only had a few rate rises, with many more to come. Stocks are down a little, but only just barely into bear territory. Major companies will be reporting large losses soon, but that hasn't happened yet, and the market will react to that.

No major companies have begun large layoffs yet, either, so far we are only seeing a few minor hiring freezes. And of course we haven't seen bankruptcies yet, but they are surely coming.

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

It's kinda bullshit that a lot of us worked hard to get into consulting and now have to deal with layoffs. While others are enjoying safe decent paying jobs even though they slack off.

Are green card holders eligible for unemployment benefits? Do you need to pay any unemployment insurance while working in order to be eligible for those benefits when you’re laid off?

Any of the big 4/5 announce layoffs yet?

Hi, I had been laid off several weeks ago and because of eagerness to find a new job, I had sent out several apps to companies with positions I qualified for. However, I was screened out immediately due to my resume.

Because of this, I had revamped my resume to better showcase my qualifications after having colleagues review and provide feedback.

I wanted to see if it would be worth trying to apply to the same positions with a different email? Thank you for any advice!

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!

Why have there been so many layoffs at Deloitte this year?

Why are so many agencies struggling right now and doing layoffs? Is this normal or are more brands going in house or what?

Anyone here NOT like their coworkers? I feel like we’re supposed to all like each other in consulting, but I’ve worked w a lot of a holes. Industry coworkers may suck but I work w them 8-6 only?

Any suggestion for good books on entrepreneurship? Trying to gather insights and motivate myself to finally working for myself.

Searched but couldn’t find a good answer- best bank for digital services and our travel heavy lifestyle? UAE based

Career wise: if you had to choose between Allstate or USAA which would you choose? It’s both for the same position of unrepresented bodily injury adjuster.

Hi all. I’m a ux designer at a small company and need to recruit a few people for usability testing. Our target demographic is people over the age of 35 who’ve been in leaderships positions. If you’re interested I’ll send the link- the test will take about 15-30 minutes and pays 20$. No human interaction required.

Anyone know if it’s possible to take the NYS real estate exam at home because of covid? Went online to schedule an exam but couldn’t find any locations near me that had open seats :/

Back to back posts, but value the opinions here.

I am being offered a Senior AE role, but the Head of B2B is also hiring a Head of Sales, North America.

I met with the person who will be leading NA sales, and do not think hes the right person for the job. Not someone I think I can learn much from.

Would you share this with the Head of B2B? Or is it not my place?

Just moved to Miami, early 30s M. How did you start meeting people other than at work? Worth it to join a social club?

I've worked as a maid for a long time but am tired of driving to everyone's homes, so I'm thinking of trying out a job as a housekeeper in a hotel. Is there anyone out there who has done both jobs and can tell me a bit about the differences? I would appreciate any advice at all.

I’m taking a few calls for new opps at a couple different firms and wanted to get a pulse on feelings from folks who actually work there to help me narrow it down. Agencies are: Weber Shandwick, Ruder Finn, FleishmanHillard and a smaller boutique called LifeSci Communications. From The sounds of other threads on here, I’m nervous about WS. Looking for a read on Work/Life balance, how well staffed they are, avg pay range (VP level), PTO/holidays/benefits, etc. So, how do you like working there?

Dear All, can any one refer me for BA profile.

What does one get when they complete 5 years in a company?
In Intel they give a award to them but curious what are the other goodies? Maybe some RSUs and recognition points?

Why do you consult? Because It’s God’s chosen profession? Because it’s better to be upper middle class than anything else? Because you’re passionate about the art of recommending real world strategies that came to you in a Hilton night excel fever dream? Because after graduating from a big name school consulting is the best opportunity to continue your panicky need to be validated by letters?
