Anybody heard Wipro firing its D1 partners left right and centre (irrespective of whether they are over or under achievers) to cut costs… and the most astonishing part is these people are being fired at 1 or 2 day’s notice, even in developed countries like Australia !!!

Cutting people who are over achievers makes no sense at all… aren’t they bringing in the big bucks?

Some of them were, but right now there is so much focus on lifting the operating margins (currently it is approx 15%, which is near to what Accenture has too), that they have resorted to such cost cutting measures

I interviewed there and wasn't impressed. This warms my heart.

Advice needed. I’m leaving an incredibly toxic work environment (admin, students, parents, etc) for my dream job. I already resigned, but my students don’t know yet. I knew if I told them, their behavior would be even worse. How would you explain to the kids you’re leaving? I don’t want my P to know I’ve been hired elsewhere, so I don’t want to tell them I have a new position, but I also don’t want them to think they ran me off (or that I got fired, lol). I’m leaving next week.

Is it a red flag as a candidate to ask if a company offers maternity leave? I was recently laid off, so I wasn't expecting to lose my job. We're planning on trying for a baby in the next year or so, so it's really important to me that my next job offers paid maternity leave.

The issue is that it's so rarely advertised on company web sites, but ultimately better maternity leave would sway my decision for a job. Is there a way to ask this tactfully? Or without raising red flags?

Happy layoff hunger games

Has anyone taken part of the education reimbursement program? I’ve been here for 4 years and I’m thinking of obtaining my Master’s in Organizational Leadership, but I feel like with this merger, if I started the program and then there are layoffs or too many new hires, or work just becomes overwhelming, I wouldn’t be able to complete my program. I’m already wearing multiple hats when it comes to work. Does anyone have insight on how it works/what it’s like? Thanks in advance!
