Looks likely. D confirmed it today.

The TLDR is Deloitte is going to to do a PR move and cull more than usual due to COVID, under the guise of “performance management” to protect the brand.

The angry self proclaimed ultra high-performers clamoring for validation here will chime in shortly and say shouldn’t low performers be cut anyways and that they are unrelated (despite what is going to be a undeniably correlation)?

Yes they should. But not 4/4 overall good employees under the guise of PM.

I have analysts that are doing great that are worried because their util wasn’t perfect, etc. I wish I could tell them they were good to go and not worry.

What's it look like over there?

It will all be based on business conditions - gives everyone the appropriate air cover. If demand is down 25% going into Summer or Fall, you don’t need 100% of your consulting staff.

I started a full time in-house design job that pays extremely well. I barely have to work at all. This makes me very confused since I kept hearing stories of people working 60+ hr weeks as designers at ad agencies. I am not complaining, but I have this creeping irrational feeling that I’ll get fired for not working even though there’s nothing for me to do. Should i be making up projects or asking for more work? Or just chill out? I just feel very confused. Are a lot of full time jobs like this?

I am seeking new employment, I was recently laid off due to lack of work. I would very much appreciate any leads.

Working remotely the last three years has become a way of my life and supports our current situation well, therefore I am seeking a similar role but will consider other opportunities.

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭

Earlier in the year I was going through a rough time and working through it, I have gotten better over the course of the year but I feel it's not enough. I got fired from my last job.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Can anyone please tell me what’s the expected salary range for Risk Analyst Role. Thank you.
