Anyone know how deep PwC is going with the layoffs in August? I know it was 10-15% for most groups in June so just wondering if it will be smaller since they just went so deep.

I think they should just bring S& comp in line with the cohort. That will be better than layoffs!

Most of the top performers at S& already left. Look at its ranking now. I agree that PwC shouldn't treat the S& as elites over the pwc employees anymore. Just costs extra money and breeds resentment and divide

unfortunately, consulting is not absent of instability. In theory, big 4s should be more stable because of longer term nature of programs and because they allow for longer careers with no significant change in work life balance. But recessions hit everyone

Your "chiming in"makes no sense. Can't speak for the rest of my colleagues but I know that, among other reasons, I decided to stay with my partner team after the acquisition because I liked the people. No one from our entire group went to work for a competitor. I wouldn't do this job for half a dollar less than what I make today. At the sole hint that pwc would harmonize salaries down (they cannot harmonize up) I would jump ship and go to industry.

I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off.

Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Hi, received an offer from another Big4 in Amsterdam (currently working in Eastern Europe), but relocating, I’m concerned about potential layoffs in the coming period being the last to join the team.

I'm in salary negotiations for a great role, but there's a small gap (~$10k) to even match my old salary. They have most of the obvious benefits like unlim. vacation, low healthcare premiums, 401k matching, permanent WFH, etc.

Right now, severance pkg. and a more senior title are most important. Has anyone negotiated a title bump? Outcome?

Are there additional benefits I should also consider?

Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t be necessarily grow my network, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)
