Does anyone know what an email that says “Hi - scheduling time for a meeting” could mean at EY? It is at 9 am on a Friday morning. HR sent it to me today afternoon and also invited a partner on it. My guess it’s that it’s a layoff but when I spoke to my counselor, he had no idea what it could be and wasn’t able to offer me much advice. What would you guys recommend prior to this? Any advice on this, on severance, future job hunting, etc. would be appreciated. Thank you.

How’s your performance feedback? FYI your counselor (unless they are service line leadership partner) would not be informed of your termination ahead of time.

Have you been receiving negative feedback on your work?

It’s been mixed. Some managers gave me negative feedback and others gave good feedback. It’s not like it was all negative. But from company perspective, they can use any reason for layoffs so even 1 manager giving bad feedback could be enough.
