Who’s negotiated severance? Any tips?

My agency instituted a raise freeze ~1 day before my yearly review (3 months ago). I was an underpaid AAE but am now 30-40% below the other AEs. I was distraught to not get the raise I really need but I respected that it was "company-wide, no exceptions." I've recently heard some *did* quietly get raises. If I was making a livable wage, I would tough it out but it really hurts to hear people at higher salaries are getting what I was denied. I feel totally taken advantage of. What do I do?

Can anyone share their experience working for an IT staffing company as a sales executive? Any particular pros and cons?

Big layoffs at CP+B today, I hear. ☹️

I’m being laid off and my agency is trying to find a place for me within our holding company. I haven’t received any departure paperwork or anything regarding severance yet. Is this normal? Are they trying to find a place for me within our holding company to avoid paying out severance? I have a job offer outside the holding group that I want to take but if I can wait it out another week until departure conversations (severance is offered), should I? I’m not the only one at my shop being laid ifd

I’m taking the SPHR in less than 2 months and haven’t started studying for it. How difficult is it? I’ve been in HR for 20 years and have experienced ALOT in that time, although there are always employee relations scenarios that surprise me! How much do I really need to study for this? I just can’t seem to motivate myself to do it, I’m so mentally burnt out at the end of the day from a high stress HR job, the last thing I feel like doing is studying HR!
