Don't wait to find out if its a layoff or low performance reason. Just start applying and looking at other options as a back-up. (Winter is coming). Just found out 10 people from my practice got axed.

What sub of PI? if this indeed happened, they can tell anyway so no point hiding. I can confirm in 5 mns after you say what sub if indeed true. Bet isn't

I'm also FSO PI and haven't heard of any layoffs, just a few jumping ship for something different (not always better). When it comes to a two star Senior vs Manager, I agree you chop both, but probably more like to keep the senior. An underperforming manager will have more of a negative impact on an engagement than an underperforming senior who is likely doing menial grunt work and not significantly impacting outcome of project or relationship w client. My senior is a solid 2* but I can pick up her slack and maintain solid relationship w client as a 5* manager. I'm not happy about it but it's what I gotta do

Senior's perform a wide variety of tasks, many far above their pay grade by filling manager-esque roles. Put that together with less pay and they have tons of value

Anybody else confirm layoffs at EY?

5x2, FSO, PI (8 seniors, 2 managers so far) probably a few senior managers too that I'm not aware of.

Between a manager with 2 and a senior with 2, who would get fired first ?

Whoever continues to underperform. All else equal, easier to underperform as a manager

Manager, higher cost. Best profit on seniors

@EY3 they would both be let go since I'm sure they're replaceable at that point.
@EY2 lets see if your skills are good enough to figure it out on your own, take initiative without me telling you to exceed expectations

Why so? Managers already demonstrated their stronger technical skills to be the manager and have been with the firm longer period of time. If i were a partner i would fire a senior first prove me wrong

From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

But ,I also want to retain in capgemini if they match the package.
Should I stop interviews & approach my manager or should I wait for him to call me again ? He had already called once saying he would match the package.
Am I being too greedy if I ask for 18/19 to retain?Or should I just ask for 17 so that repport between me and my manager remains intact?
