You already got offers? Nice work, canned and multiple new offers all on the same day, props
Yeah fuck corporations! To be honest it was one of those moments where I suddenly grew a pair and said the bravest thing I’ve ever said! It’s just that I had nothing to lose. So calmly got up said I’ll consult my lawyer and walked the fuck out of the office. They call me 5 hours later and offer me a deal that I said fine and took it
Not layoffs, they are sending SCs to HBS. To make sure HBS gets as competitive as D.
Lol wtf OP! You got two job offers after finding out today that you got laid off! This doesn’t make sense. Fake post
Key word - "cyber"....are they cutting cyber because of the hack? In anticipation of the pipeline dropping significantly?
🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
I was fired without any notice!! There were no issues with my performance or compliance so caught completely off-guard. Neither my counselor or project managers are aware of this
SC1 - well I was 😒😒😒😒
What was the reasoning? Were you fired or layed off? There's a huge difference.
Wow that was fast
D2, it’s just the threat that matters. This happened to me at RSM 5 years ago. I was there for 9 months and suddenly they laid me off. I threatened to consult a lawyer and refused to sign any paperwork. HR offered me 1 year salary and asked me to sign a resignation letter
Sorry to hear this OP.
The firm had a banner year. Surprised they would lay anyone off without performance, utilization, or compliance reasons.
Op, Harvard business school, sorry about the layoff, sounds like a shitty move by the higher ups there
We aren't getting the full story obviously, OP dun goofed and isn't giving us the scoop
Thanks guys! I did manage to get a job offer from EY and KPMG based on my network but still this just feels highly unfair and disturbing !!
P1- he’d have to prove 1) that he complained about something that would cause retaliation and 2) that the termination was retaliation for that. Very hard cases to pursue.
All this happened within a span of a week so wanted to check if there were other ppl sailing in the same boat as me. Nobody would fake anything like this !
Yep never sign the severance that day, always state that you will have your employment attorney review and that your attorney will be in contact and handling all future correspondence
Yeah it’s called at will employment and they can terminate you at any time. Best you get is unemployment benefits but those are gone if they can justify cause- which could be anything from submitting time late to an unauthorized expense. Trust me- this system is rigged against you.
