Did Deutsch LA have layoffs? I’m seeing various folks from there announcing going freelance all within the same week or so on LinkedIn.

I’m quitting my job tomorrow morning. I don’t have a new job lined up. I’m scared, but also excited? I’ve felt under utilized for months, and haven’t had a promotion after two years. I never take risks like this, but life is too short. Is this a bad choice?

Looking for emotional support after been laid off and second baby is on the way.

With so much uncertainty in the economy and waves of layoffs that have hit tech especially hard... do we think there's really such a thing as a recession-proof job anymore if you're not an "essential worker"?

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭

Does Globant terminates the employment of certain trainees after their probation(3 Months) based on their performance in the training period? Some of the fresher trainees were laid off this morning without giving a notice or reason.

We were told that the probation period is a training period & not an elimination one. It was shocking as a few of those trainees were actually good.

Dad got laid off. Drinking got worse. Attempted assault on sis and mom. Had to put up in hotel. No clue on next steps (legal and personal). Project is complete shit show and SM is not getting it. Idk man...

Can you get fired for having low utilization as a senior? My billable hours this busy season have been much lower than my peers.

WFH/Layoff/Security
Hi,
CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.
Is it worth looking for another opportunity?
I am afraid after seeing layoffs news of EPAM, Publicis Sapient & most of the other companies calling employees in the office.
I love my WFH in PwC India & base location of Kolkata. & the best thing is stability in PwC India, they never lay off!!

He busted his ass during busy season only to be fired now. They knew he wasn’t cutting it why wait until after busy season

Pros: ?

Cons:
- culture deck is something else: if they think they can do better than you, they will just let you go

- they think they’re the Yankees: if you’re batting.385, but they think there is someone out there who can bat .400, you’re going to get fired

- they will openly discuss at a meeting why you suck

- Reed Hastings' leadership style was once described as being "unencumbered by emotion". A VP once told him he's not a good listener and tends to be unempathetic.

A $1T valuation is fine, but Tim Cook should be fired for the value loss that came from actually producing products, being famously boring and not losing his mind on social media.

Just found out I got laid off. Cheers to the weekend 🍺

Hello Everyone,

Any leads will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?

HCB layoffs on the horizon

Job transition question: I recently accepted an offer for a new role with Merrill Lynch, the following day I was fired from my previous employer. I haven’t filled out the updated work history background check info yet. The reason for termination was due to performance expectations not being met. Should I reach out to my new employer and let them know that I’ve been terminated? Should I just put the termination update on the background check form and leave it at that? Wondering what I should do.

Hi Fishes,

Is there a minimum tenure that one has to serve in ZS to ask for office transfers? (within India)

And how often do they get accepted and the general sentiment by the management when one asks for it?

Assuming that my team works from Pune (and i like the job scope) but would like to relocate to Bangalore office (hometown) once the team stabilizes and processes are in place.

Would love to talk with you on DMs if you have any experience similar to this.

TIA!

I have worked in a PM team for 4yrs

> 3yrs were as a Business Analyst & 1 yr as an Associate PM in other company. If in a JD its written 2yrs of PM exp required, then will my application be considered even though I have 4yrs of Product Management team Experience?

If Not then WHY is this trend in market?

I’m a Pro now, baby!

“At dinner John (client) said I have nice legs, grabbed my thigh, put his arm around me & invited me to his hotel. Seems inappropriate.” Boss: “Well we won’t be taking him to dinner again this year”🤯

Hi All,

do you have any idea about 3Analytics?

Currently an experienced manager at PwC with an IT audit / IT risk consulting background. My Google profile has been referred - but I can't seem to get that first round interview. Had my resume professionally reviewed - not sure what else to do - any tips?

I didn’t got the bonus mentioned in the increment letter. Only increased salary. When do we get it?

Does anybody work with a smoker? Seriously NOBODY rips cigs in this industry. Just seems weird that, in my 7 years, I’ve never worked with a smoker

Does NTT data give a probation of 6 months for lateral hires?
Can one take leaves in this period ?

Does working in FAANG really open up that many opportunities?

Best consulting firms to work for that will allow 100% remote work indefinitely regardless of what clients do?

The pandemic, mental health issues, and financial stress caused my work to suffer. What do I do?

Thoughts on "social media" agencies? I have an opportunity but can't help but think my IQ will drop significantly.

Sitting at home today staring at crypto charts ... can't wait to see what happens come August 1! Eek.

Best concept you’ve ever seen?

I just got laid off — anyone else get hit this round? ☹️

Anyone know the recruiters for Twitter?

Anyone know good headhunters for finding In-House gigs at Tech/Startups?

Have any NYC agencies pushed back their back to office dates?

The annual Leo Burnett Cannes 'predictions' is a joke. It's obvious what will win based on past award shows. It's like me predicting that tomorrow will be a Friday.

So... MRCL. It’s an intranet, right?

Last minute town halls are terrifying. The anticipation is killing me!

My agency doesn’t submit for awards, and I’m not saying I’d win if they did. But as much as we say awards don’t matter, it feels like they do at a lot of places I’d like to eventually work. How difficult is it to submit on my own? Or am I better off finding a place that does submit and is willing to hire me without awards?

Has anyone heard of Blue Crow Films in Turkey? They seem to be an animation studio and are looking to do business, but I have some yellow flags already... Just wondering if they have approached anyone else.

Can you be hospitalized for exhaustion?

Have you ever used topresume or wonsulting services? Does it make sense to pay them?

Things have been super stressful at work lately for a variety of reasons & a couple of weeks ago I decided to raise the issues with my Creative Director.
For context, he’s the reason for a lot of these problems and I (tactfully, I think) said as much. He listened to me patiently but took no responsibility and deflected blame with every issue raised.
Today he asked me to send an email to him about how overworked I am so that he can use it to talk to management. (cont. in comments)

Making a horizontal move at the Manager level from a traditional to digital team - how can I perform my best and not be babysat by my boss while I try to learn everything?

New to IT B2B marketing. Any advice on how to educate myself with IT? Any classes, books, etc. that you recommend?

I get really anxious and have a hard time reading emails where I know there will be really challenging feedback or comments from the client. Obliviously, something I am working on as I rise in the ranks. Anyone experience this and have tips on how to manage it?

I just got into reading books, any suggestions to start with? Which could help to increase media/marketing knowledge.

Tried the search but couldn’t find anything (the FB search sucks btw): What’s a good salary for a Sr. AD at a tech company in NYC?
