As a former accountant in PA, can confirm. And the layoffs are a slap in the face. But, that said, the experience did get me where I am today.

People just need to go in with a "Imma get mine" attitude and don't get burned from buying into the BS "Culture". Don't believe that any higherups work/promises means as much as the dirt your shoes dragged into the office. It's late stage capitalism. Especially in PA, we don't produce anything that truly helps the greater good. Just cogs in the machine. Get paid, get that reference, dip the faq out.

@tax manager, no, they have their eyes open. Do you think the public accounting work culture is healthy? Do you think the partners at the firm are genuinely concerned about you more than the size of their distributions?

Get real

Does Accenture strategy (Capability network) India lay off folks every year ?

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. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Have a big interview tomorrow. The question I dread the most is about why you’re looking for a new job.

Do I just make something else up entirely?
