Thought this was interesting. Across 160 teams of researchers, just about all failed to make good life outcome predictions on things like GPA, evictions, layoffs, and others. Data followed 4.5k families across 15 years, with 13k features (varied over time). Haven't looked at it directly yet, but will be turning the docs and data inside out... In the meantime, authors claim this as showing the limits of ML. Oh, and it's published in PNAS, so you know there's some big publication energy there.

You should be good.
No you’ll be fine
Just got an offer for Deloitte this past week so they are still hiring it seems
Yeah big firms both cut practices that are overgrown and hire in others at the same time. Leaders try not to extend offers they’ll rescind in consulting. The tech bubble that happened and did this earlier this year is quite rare.
No Consulting firms generally are much older and more disciplined (especially Deloitte) then tech startups. They just slow down offers rescinding an offer is a terrible thing to do so most won’t do it.
