Been with D for 8 months. This is my 2nd job in 2.5 years but thinking of jumping ship with all the lay-offs in my area. Will I be seen as a job hopper? Really like it here don’t want to be laid off.

@Deloitte OP “ I can see why you feel the way you do but you have to remain positive and still be prepared for the best and worst. I truly believe all things happen for the better whether we feel or see it. Please keep that in mind as you continue to move forward”

I would not give up until they tell me! My opinion

Let me get this straight: you like the ship you’re on but are leaning over the edge thinking of jumping because you *might* fall off?

I mean this helpfully: do you have anxiety issues? Do you see a therapist? You’re letting negative thoughts take control of your rationality, and these negative thoughts could cause you to spiral

OP, what offering are you in, are you staffed, and what are your skills? If you like it here, I wouldn’t jump on the assumption you might get laid off.

If you have a history of compliance violations or underperformance (quality of work and/or utilization), you MAYBE should be worried but only enough to brush up your resume and LinkedIn and see what’s out there. If these things don’t apply to you, focus on doing really well at your job.

I think you shouldn’t look for a job for the sake of job security - what’s to say whatever you’re exiting to won’t do the same? Also making a rash decision into some random exit isn’t a recipe for contentment and sustained tenure. But if you already an exit ambition in mind and are thinking of this as a timing opportunity, sure why not...

Why would you quit a job if you like it? That makes no sense. Just throw in the towel I guess. Personally, I’m afraid of heights so I’m just going to go jump out a window. Good luck with your decision!!

P.S. Grow some balls. Don’t roll over at the first sign of adversity and you can break you streak of a new job every year.

If you like it, why would you jump ship?

The best time to look for a job is when you have a job! Hang in there get paid, take a vacation, start looking and if you find something with out having to take anything then you are in a better position. Who knows while your looking and seeing how marketable you are things may get better where your at.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
