Can anyone sense or smell mid year layoffs? What’s the temp right now across the board?

If I get fired while on OPT without getting my H1-B stamped, is it useless or can it be used in future for some other job?

Can partners comment whether Pwc is having another round of layoffs. This is so scary! Shouldn't they rid of partners who can't sell first?! Or pause hiring? Opp. cost to find and train talent again?

I was recently laid off at Snap. Does anybody have new opportunities in tech for a software engineer, 2 yrs of backend experience? Appreciate any referrals!

At this point in the game it doesn't make a difference where you at everybody is getting laid off at one point or another the only thing I say is try to repair yourself for it if it happens to you

any telltale signs of layoffs in tiger?

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.

To everyone that’s been laid off I just want y’all to know that I’m with you. That is why I’m doing the bare minimum until it’s my time to go.

Thoughts on Veteran status and the ongoing corporate layoffs?

So what’s going on with DDB NY? I read about layoffs, but what clients do they have and what is it like working there?

Hey guys! Yesterday the company i worked for laid off the people in our state for economic reasons with no notice. I’m in desperate need of referral in entry level SWE/SD(or similar) positions at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Has anyone left their job after making a huge purchase? I just bought an apartment near my job but I think I'm about to be fired 😮

Has anyone here ever been fired for being rude to a customer?

Losing two key accounts. Layoffs look pretty much inevitable. Any agencies hiring a Project Manager in the LA/OC area?

URGENT: Can anyone refer me for an entry-level software engineer/ Trainee Software engineer role (Java preferred)? I need a job on an urgent basis as my current organization has asked me to put down my papers due to changed business requirements (read layoffs) and has given me 30 days to find a new job. And I would really appreciate you guys if you can provide me with any help in this situation.

#layoffs

Thanks in advance

Starting a new job at Applied Materials on Monday as a Manufacturing Engineer III. I’ve been out of college for 5 years and all of my work experience till now has been in R&D for start ups and small businesses . So not only is this a new experience for me going into such a large company but also a industry (semiconductors). Does anybody has tips or advices on what I should expect as a new hire and how I can set myself up for success? Thanks!

I'm an engineer, and I feel like my manager is more of a friend than anything else. We talk about our personal lives, and I feel like it's hard to be completely honest with her when she's so casual with me. I don't want to lose our friendship, but I also need to be able to talk honestly with someone who has the power to help me grow professionally. Is there a way to have both?

Lost all motivation to hit the gym out of the blue. I used to be diligent about working out everyday and now it’s been about 2 months since I’ve been to the gym. It kind of troubling at the same time

I’m entering an in-house with a bad Glassdoor rating as my first job in a new place. Please wish me luck as I will need every ounce of it 🥺🥺🥺

I just bought an Alexa for my grandma's birthday. Her old radio broke and she's been kind of sad because she can't listen to her favorite music anymore while cooking, so I thought this would be a good pick. She'll have her favorite music right there.

Later today my grandpa tells me she's not been asking Alexa for her favorite music, but for her radio stations instead 😭😂

Hi fishes, any openings for SAP consultant in American Express in India

Hey fishes,

I've joined Amex in September, so just wanted to know whether I'll be eligible for appraisal, or should I confirm it with my director?
And if eligible, how much appraisal will I get ?

Guys, I interviewed at amex gurgaon 10days ago and was told by VP that I will hear from HR very soon. But when I checked on HR yesterday, she said interviews are still in progress and it will take a week more to finalize.
I want to know do they take this long to close a position? This opening was posted on 30th Sep.. It's already been 1.5 months. This is when they said the position was urgent!! 🙄

Super important topic - What RU wearing to your Christmas party. I’ve been seeing pics of guys in suits and women in gowns this year.

Hey guys, I’m a freelance broadcast producer and I’ve spent most of my career working for larger agencies. I’m doing something for a smaller agency and they want the production company to hide costs in their bid and then have production bill the client the inflated amount directly and pay the hidden costs to the agency. The agency is calling it a “consultation fee” but client just thinks production costs more. Is that common and I just haven’t experienced it before? Or is this a big red flag?

What’s it like at Camp J these days?

Any Canadian company that has a good in-house agency?

any ADs wanna do young lions with me next year? i know it’s early but i’m eager. let’s meet up, do some spec, have some fun.

I found out that my colleagues are getting paid more than I am for the exact same role. We are due for an appraisal soon, should I ask for higher percentage telling them I am underpaid compared to others?

Is our industry as competitive as some say? I see a lot of people saying this and I work with a bunch of hacks (myself included). It felt like a little while ago agencies were begging to hire new talent, and most couldn’t find new people. Is it really that hard to get a job at an agency? Maybe I’m just out of touch being in this career for so long.

How much should a Jr. CW with 1.5+ years experience be getting paid?
