Was recently fired from my Restructuring IB job a month before bonus meetings. Any idea what normal severance packages look like? No specific event caused it, they’d just overhired last year. Was only offered 4 weeks of base pay. From conversations with friends this seems low

I currently work as a Cyber Sec associate consultant at PwC, I’ve been here for a little less than a year and just not enjoying consulting. Is it stupid for me to start looking to make a switch to big tech now with the job market having a potential for layoffs?

Hi ! Looking for advice. I’ve been with a company in BC for 2.5 years, started support role, promoted to smb AE a year ago. salary is 65k with uncapped commission. We recently did layoffs, I was kept however there have been changes & meeting quota has become difficult & we have a way heavier workload. The perks are amazing but I need to make more money. Do you think I could get a role with more money with my experience that’s fully remote even in this “recession”..thoughts?

Does anybody else get so nauseous and anxious in the mornings that you just can’t get out of bed? I just think I’m going to get fired every single day.

How bad would a layoff be if you get a nice severance and paid vacation from it? Been on my mind. Assuming getting another job will happen but man that paid “vacation” sounds amazing. Bad thoughts!

I’m a Junior accountant, recent MBA grad in Finance, located in NYC, just got laid off due to a merger. Anybody hiring or know any opening positions ?

I have a contingent offer after being laid off in spring due to COVID. Since then the job market has obviously been tough, so a few buddies and I started a start up that has done very well, but we haven’t filed for LLC status yet (keeps pushing back). We have ~10 guys working on various areas. I just received an offer back in my usual industry, and have been truthful in my experiences. Will they ding me in a background check since there’s no 1099 to prove formal employment? FYI I have references

My manager casually threw out that she had an exec tell her it’s fine if she wants to close my division down next year. We are a niche team in a large company. I asked her to clarify as I am worried about my team (and me) she said we would be “well taken care of” as in receive severance…she was so casual about it and said she didn’t know what she would do - we’re performing well, but it’s a small market. What do I do? Warn my team? Look for jobs? I have been here for 20 years w/niche skills…

Hi everyone, really sorry to hear about the recent layoffs. I would be happy to refer to KPMG—please DM me if you’re interested.

Cont'd. He fired me for raising unethical practice that a dir. on my proj. was following. Today I have my own firm with a revenue of $30M. How do you reco..this should've been handled by the partner?

Does anyone have any insight into the Layoffs from a SCNO perspective? (Numbers, duration, etc.)

I gave notice today. One of the firm owners called to try and convince me to stay. She offered me a 15k raise with a decreased case load and said staying with them would be better given the economy and “chance of being laid off” at a smaller firm. Thoughts on this?

Hello everyone! I’d love your thoughts…
I was laid off in May and been on the job hunt for 4 months. Finally received a offer. Then a week later another offer. I was working remotely for the past year & I’m struggling w/ the idea of being onsite. Neither job is on my desired career path, my goal is people operations/HR operations.
Offer 1: Payroll Admin, on-site. 72k, 216 hrs PTO
Offer 2: HR Payroll Admin, Remote. 62.5K + 6k sign on bonus, 70k after 6 months, 144 hrs PTO
