Everyone getting laid off and I’m over here hoping I’m one of them 🏆

What day did you get laid off? I feel like layoffs always happen on a Tuesday.

The week of my wedding, my husband (PL SQL Developer 4 yoe) was laid off. That was a couple of weeks ago. Luckily I'm still bringing money in as a software engineer, but I'm looking for advice on how to support a partner who has been laid off. Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

I have heard a lot of layoff news for Biotech companies lately, has anyone been affected or have any insights?

Got let go last month, no clarity as to why but with all the layoffs going on it's a little scary... 6 YoE CPA and PM with big 4 and lots of diverse experience looking for work. Referrals really appreciated.

Thanks for your help 🙏

Just got out of a meeting with a client. Talk about uncomfortable- they'd fired their director that morning and he ran in screaming at the team. They ended up calling security to kick him out!

What has anyone heard about the layoffs at Gunderson? Was the NY office affected?

The marketing department is always the first to get hit during layoffs. Do you have a backup plan in case you lose your job?

If things don’t get better in the next few months , are we the first ones in the line of fire ? I feel that layoffs are imminent.

Got fired today. All my above the line work got positive nods. My CD was overly picky about every word in my email blasts and collateral. I’m sure that’s what did it. Luckily I have a produced radio spot, another on the way, and tv spot being shot this month. Any advice?

Sessions resigned; impressed he didn't get fired

Hi everyone, unfortunately I was recently affected by a layoff at my company. About 30% of their marketing department along with other departments were all let go. I have 3+ professional experience with product marketing, digital marketing, and event management. Im on the hunt for a new job and am fairly new to this lovely city. If you know of anyone looking for marketing specialists or would like to network let me know. Id love to connect!

Hi folks, recently one of my friend got fired from publicis sapient. he doesn't want to return company laptop is it leads to any serious issue or else are they deducting the money from final settlement?

Any advice for lateraling as first-year business lit associate? I’m not getting any work at my current firm due to partner hoarding and overstaffing. Can I lateral this early or should I wait until I’m inevitably fired for low hours? If I should lateral now, what reasons for leaving should I give interviewers? Should I tell the truth or will it look bad on me?

Am I a jerk to no worry about job security? Everyone in public seem to be concerned about lay offs, but that doesn't even seem to be a question in my shoes

How do you guys feel about investing in furniture? For the past 8 years I have used various second hand furniture. Nominal cost. Moving into my own apartment for the first time. On one hand, my furniture works. But on the other hand, I feel like I need to buy my furniture eventually? Like if not now, then when? I don’t even have a bed frame lol

A job I’m applying for asks for non-ad writing samples. I have a personal blog that has *cough, cough* personal stories. Dare I share that? I like the writing but it’s a little NSFW.

How long to stick out a new job before moving on if you know it’s not a good fit?

Has anyone actually looked at the math, calculated, and compared a freelance day rate of about 1-1.2k, booked for whatever % of the year, versus a full time staff salary of say, 200k… at what numbers do they even out when you factor in taxes, health insurance, paid vaca time etc? Hard to say which is more lucrative with the variables, but, any insights?

Started my career Feb 2021, got promoted within 6 months and recently accepted a job which will give me 50% more than my last salary… I have no idea why / how I did this because I have severe imposter syndrome.
