You're welcome

Are you actually going to Deloitte?

Can you say you're going to a competitor even if you're not just to collect the benefits

smart

Isn’t it standard to terminate asap if you’re going to a competitor, specially at B4?

I gave 3 years notice but they only paid for 2.5 due to some complicated Inflation logic 😭🥺

Stop spreading fear. You were walked out, but you were certainly paid out the length of your notice period.

On one hand I want to say I'm happy for you and things will turn out great but you already know everything will be more or less the same but with different color palettes and a higher paycheck (assuming you're getting the standard competitor salary / role bump for the switch.)

So, for a data point, it looks like I am working until the last moment at PwC.

Awesome! You’ll be much happier at Deloitte

Same thing for going to a T2

If you go to a competitor, this is common.

I bet they just paid you out for your two weeks. Like every other big 4 firm would do.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
