Be loyal to your loved ones (family, friends, what have you). That’s it.

Loyalty is earned. If my employer keeps paying me more than everyone else they get me for another year.

Agree. Company is never loyal to employees who is loyal. Better title and increment are for new employees and they don’t bring parity to existing employees just because they are loyal.

I have done quite well to myself being loyal to people rather than organisations where people take decisions, and to organisations over people where it is the other way round.

My own firm is people driven, and loyalty and trust in the (few) people i really like has accelerated my career X-fold.

At my key client, people come and go, but being loyal to the organisation - who in the end is my job-provider - has kept me very successful for 10+ years now.

As always: it depends, the world is not as easy as the populist / alpha-capitalist / whatever in vogue now rhetoric may postulate.

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

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 quit my previous job approximately 5-6 months ago due to toxic culture and being pressured to commit fraud… I fear hiring managers see that I’ve been out of work for this time and may assume I was fired or laid off. Additionally I’ve had a couple interviews where company “X” interviewers have commented on this and in an effort to not bad mouth my previous employer I’m stuck with a generic answer like I want to take my career to the next level with Company “X.” Any thoughts/advice?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞

Layoffs. Most big firms say they're sitting on a conservative pile of cash - which I believe is true - but work will obviously not return to pre-COVID levels in the short term, probably not even in the medium term. Are Biglaw layoffs coming?
