I don't know but I left banking a few months ago for a job I hate and it's been hard to get banking interviews. I'm guessing it'd be even harder if I'd been canned.

My friend was laid off early this year and as far as I know he still hasn't found another gig

What don't you like about it? I thought the grass was supposed to be greener!

I have a few friends/ex-coworkers who got laid off (oh well you know, DB) and most of them are way happier at their new job now. Some stayed in banking and some took the corporate path.

Does anyone think it’s weird that my firm is bending over backwards to try to keep a first year staff from leaving the firm after she was rated a 2 this year. But now she’s trying to leave and they keep trying to push her to stay saying she can be a partner in 8-9 years and laying it all out in detail. The issue is they laid off other staff (all but her) so maybe that’s it? Find it very odd.
