Do we have any numbers on the Strategy& layoffs in terms of # or % of the office asked to leave?

Also, which levels were hardest hit?

Best of luck to all affected, you will get through this 🙏

Hi Partners

Wondering if there is a risk of layoff/asked to leave, even after becoming a partner?

Also, did you have any fear of not achieving sales targets when you became a partner?

Thanks

Constantly worried I’m going to get fired because I don’t know where I stand at my mid sized law firm (second year associate).

How is everyone handling layoffs during this time? I assume everyone is starting with a temporary layoff and then severing?

I think I’m going to be fired tomorrow morning and I am not even sad about it.

Got laid off. Just started at the agency. Was so excited because it’s a great shop. Now what?

There have been surprising news with layoffs lately. Has anyone here been affected by the layoffs at Twitter or META?

Hi, received an offer from another Big4 in Amsterdam (currently working in Eastern Europe), but relocating, I’m concerned about potential layoffs in the coming period being the last to join the team.

What’s the most diabolical exit you or a colleague has had from a company? For context, I’m not talking necessarily on bad terms - just a savage exit that’s all

All these layoffs reminding me that loyalty is dead

Are there anyone here that can help with finding a job in health admin or admin position not having any luck on indeed!? I’m a New York native, I just moved to Las Vegas and I worked for the state for 12 years in New York and I came here to take care of my mom and as a contract worker for state of Nevada education. I was fired for discrimination reasons and now I’m out of a job I have a bachelors degree and applied to 123 jobs on indeed to be denied because I’m over qualified. HELP ANYONE

EY fish - when you are laid off, is it immediate the day you're told or do you get a little warning?

Deloitte US just announced layoffs. Any other B4 started layoffs too ?

I recently laid off from First Source because There is no work in Mortgage process. I'm getting offer from a company but less 30% less package as compared to First Source. Im the only earning person for my family and don't have any financial backup. Should I Join for temporary ?

Should I be alarmed that I haven’t had a conversation with my director in a week +? (Any tips for coming to terms with being laid off for the first time?)

Working at a company and they can’t seem to hold on to their female, black and people of color employees. I blinked and 3 of the people who were in my onboarding class were either fired or they left. For context I’ve been in company less than a year and there are people who have been in the company 25yrs. I’m thinking of cutting loose before it gets to my turn.

There were substantial layoffs at firm and management has denied, saying they were performance related (mostly bullshit). They have not ruled out [further] layoffs in the future.

I don’t want to lose my job, and it would absolutely suck. But I almost feel numb and hard to even get too worked up over the prospect given how emotionally exhausting this year has been. Maybe bcz I feel somewhat safe, but I feel like if it happens, it does, and I’ll find a way to recover/move on.

Has anyone been able to negotiate anything extra or terms when being laid off?

Looking for advice. Submitted Reasonable Accommodations to HR three months ago, and instead of accepting/negotiating, my company fired me. Aren’t they required to engage in an interactive process with me?
