Here is how KPMG handled an announcement today re: a RIF:
We’ll be laying off people. We can’t tell you when. can’t tell you how many people. We can’t give you any details. But we WILL send you an email after this call with FAQs and the severance policy.

...no email was sent. So, now 1,000 employees are going to bed tonight confused and irritated AF.

Better than what we get in my business unit. Everything’s fine. Don’t worry. Another round of kool aid?

That's what they did to the admin community. They only said something once they needed ppl to decide if they wanted to op-into the severance package.

I just wonder how 1000 EA jobs can turn into 60 ASK positions. They want you to apply right away with a pay cut. They will feel the pain when we are all gone. It’s just a matter of time. Heads Up KPMG!

@KPMG - what is ASK desk?

EY has had this model for years. Most PPEDD's are assigned a remote EA not in their location and anyone else under that rank does not have access to any EA anymore.

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?
