The sad irony of all the good people who tried to roll out a good product and now have been fired by the AI logic of that bastardized (Microsoft) product so that they can hire more offshore workers.

Bad part of being laid off: many many interviews (and of course lack of job). Silver lining: no more virtual company happy hours! I do not miss the pressure to participate.

I recently cleared all rounds of interview for Mindtree and waiting for the offer letter. However, since Mindtree has been recently acquired by LTI, is there any layoff expected to happen in Mindtree?
Kindly pls give me an idea about how the situation is now in both companies.

Lots of farewell emails this week at PwC. People getting laid off? Has anyone heard anything about it?

Are there any casualties of the Coram/Optum infusion layoffs in the bowl? How is your job search going?

What's your opinion on making friends with non-HR coworkers? I don't like the thought that someday I might have to write up a friend for disciplinary action or tell them they're fired.

Hi all,

I laid off and looking for new opportunity as Java developer having 2.1 years of experience.

Do you think it is harder for a doctor or an accountant to get fired?

I am a Certified Management Accountant with 2 years experience senior accountant, 2 years internal audit, 2 years accounting supervisor. I was laid off in April 2020 from a global transportation company and have since worked in government services for far less than my previous pay. Anyone hiring remote accounting positions $90k and up?

They finally fired the Sr. Con!!! Boy, was he burning the budget!!!

Just got laid off. They just cited shortage of work. First time something like this has happened and I am feeling low and lost. What should I do? I not even sure what to ask HR for? Please help I could really use some guidance.

I was fired by my firm in Oct for a combo of covid-related & other reasons, jumped right into volunteering for Biden campaign, then spent Dec/Jan dealing with family issues. Now trying to figure out how to address in interviews, what to do about writing samples & references. In the past I’ve only worked with recruiters when they contacted me about a particular job. Can I hire a recruiter to help me with my job search? Or a career coach? If so, how do I find the right person?

~15 people were laid off from our company today. Keep your eyes open for good talent up for hire.

Hi there! I was just laid off this morning as a recruiting coordinator. I’ve had my eye on being a project coordinator for some time and I’d love to break into the field. I’ve applied to a few dozen positions in the past few weeks and haven’t heard back from anyone. Does anyone have any tips on finding a role or ways to develop skills to be a more attractive candidate?

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)

TIA ♥️

Any fish here work for Amazon at Austin in data science or business intel? Would like to connect.

I was on a partner/manager call today and they were discussing the “high” turnover at the senior and experienced associate level. What was shocking is that while ours is about double normal, evidently we are 3 out of 4 in turnover meaning 2 of the Big 4 are even higher.

I currently work for a small litigation firm that is merging/being acquired by a somewhat larger firm (but still fewer than 50 attorneys). Was wondering if anyone in a similar scenario has negotiated compensation and how that was received? I want to push for 15% of gross settlements on contingency cases (will now have a decent number of hourly cases) but don’t know if that is unreasonable.

I'm looking for an HR Director role.
I'm currently a Senior HR Manager (because the Ops Director didn't want another Director In the payroll) overseeing 4 facilities & 3 companies. I have 1 HR Manager, 3 HR Generalists, 1 Recruiter, 2 EHS Coord, and 3 EHS Leads reporting to me.
I have over 15 years in HR, an MBA, PHR & SHRM-CP certifications & experience in healthcare, retail, logistics, & manufacturing.
I'm in Texas and willing to relocate to San Antonio, College Station & Houston.
Thank you.

29F. I’ve become burnt out on spending my free time with people I don’t enjoy being around (i.e people who I feel relieved to leave after spending time with them). With that said, I’ve started to distance myself from my dad, 2 aunts, childhood best friend, and other friends. Has anyone gone through something similar? I just can’t get myself to muster the energy to be fake when I’m around them, but I feel guilty that I’m basically cutting them out of my life and am nervous I will regret doing so.

Help! I moved into a new apt building in November. rent here is about 3k but avg rent in this area is way less. There’s been many things I’ve noticed AFTER moving in but the one thing that I can’t get over is the people who live above me. I HEAR their music at 7 am. Like I can sing along to the lyrics that’s how loud it is. It sounds like someone is running back and forth / moving furniture alllll day. It’s driving us insane. Can someone please help with what I can say to the leasing office?
