What’s it’s like working at EY tax? I heard they recently fired a bunch of people. Got an offer but not sure if I should make the move.

I see here that a lot of people think there might be layoffs in the Big 4s. I’m an A1 and haven’t been through CRT yet. Do you think underperforming seniors/A3 will be let go first over A1s?

The team I worked/traveled with for the past 5 years was laid off today. Seeing their Skype status show up as “presence unknown” just hit a nerve. 😢

Does anyone else think it's in poor taste to throw all out, expensive holiday parties when the entire groupe is experiencing layoffs?

Honestly how hard is it to get fired in public accounting. I feel like i struggle sometimes and I can’t complete my tasks in a timely manner. Definitely can see my annoyances on my manager face.

Sometimes I feel like exiting to industry, sucking at my job just enough such that we have to hire a consulting firm to do my work. Seems like the genesis for all my projects and no one gets fired

For all fellow fishbowlers that were laid off, should we create some group to help each other out and use our networks to help out?

I had a recent manager that I’m thinking about reporting to HR. He called me emotional during a meeting, made a joke about how I was “fired” in front of the client, and in general berated me everyday. I fear the reprecrussions though. What do you think? Anyone else been through something like this?

Fear of being laid off (at 50) is so all enveloping that it’s affecting my health and sleep. I have a pit in my stomach all the time. Sitting alone at home (single) knowing if I’m on the list I’ll never get hired again. And not enough savings for the next three years let alone forty. Decision makers: when you lay somebody off you are condemning them to years of unemployment. fight not to do it.

Arguing consistently with manager on approach. Even told her last year workpapers sucked. I'm so fired. Lol 🤣😂🔫 and I'm on student visa And goodbye 5 at senior 1 after pulling an excellent year

To all the Deloitters - it's sad that there are layoffs.. Its good that you want to share the news and "warn" others but how about following a template -- level, office, service line, rating

Does anyone else feel so burned out from the pandemic that you just want to stop all work and kind of don’t care if you get fired? (But obviously you actually do.)

Seeing some friends who were laid off getting new jobs this week- there is hope!

Epic stories of people quitting or getting fired. Go!

With all the recent layoffs I really hope Deloitte is not internally celebrating their “revenue growth”. For those laid off, wishing you all the best in your job search.💛

I keep seeing someone on LinkedIn publicly calling out and badmouthing agencies for not hiring her, as well as creating pretty controversial ads to display on her portfolio. Not to mention complaining about how white people are being discriminated against calling out organizations like MAIP. Anyone else seeing this and as mortified as I am? What are your thoughts, would you hire them? I won’t name names but if you’re reading this, for the sake of your career, STOP.

EY is not sponsoring TN employees for H1B anymore, but they are continuing sponsoring for GC.. lol this is so weird.

Help me spot my issues. I believe business will be forever changed and much more things will be virtual. I want to move my practice to as remote as possible and I want to move to a beach somewhere. I expect my savings will be 50-100k.

I negotiated a flexible working arrangement with my firm at the beginning of last fiscal year. It consists of a reduced salary based on a reduced number of total hours worked and a certain percentage of those hours being billable hours (my normal utilization % goal). My work-life balance did not improve and I gave notice to leave the firm last month, but my boss convinced me to stay through 10/15. Recently she insinuated that if I don’t meet the billable goal, I’ll need to pay back the firm...
