A coworker just got fired, and it's so hard not to think that I'm next in line. Clearly, they were waiting for busy season to end, and then cut her off. Are any of your companies downsizing? How do you steer clear of the anxiety of feeling like you're dispensable?

The layoffs have been pretty quiet in my company, so I'm pretty chill for now. Sorry that your colleague was let go. Hope they're able to find something soon.

Is this post AI? Are any of our interactions real?!?!

But to answer the original question, we are in the middle of layoffs at Deloitte. We are all dispensable and as much as I enjoy my work, I am actively working on a plan B as I’m not confident that I will not be impacted.

Your self response is right. Chill out. Don't worry. You could be laid off, but you can cross that bridge when you come to it.

How does contract to hire work? If I’m offered $37/hr on w2 for 3 months and then possibly a permanent position, how much can I expect to get annually as a full time company employee as a BI data analyst II? I have a M.S. and certificates in DA but this will be my first job as DA.
I prefer working for what is offered on contract without negotiating, and then negotiate when I transition into the company itself so I have a better chance of getting the contract position and show my skills.
