Exploring the cyber security career field but I have a question: if this is your job and the company you work for gets hacked, do you get fired?

Why do some people get laid off and others not? Is it always utilization? Do people typically know they're at risk before it gets to that point?

A reminder to all: we are going through very difficult times. Please help someone who has gotten laid off if you can!

Having tough time deciding between IB & Consulting. My thought process: I have a "better" background for IB (TAS/valuation) and with tech layoffs, this might push more potential would-be tech applications to pursue consulting (there by increased competition)? Additionally, you can do IB intern and full time consulting but not vice versa. I prefer consulting, but IB seems like the "safer" option? And if consulting does get hit hard, I would hopefully have a full time IB offer via internship.

How is everyone feeling amidst these layoffs? Hope everyone is taking care of themselves!

What if Elon Musk replaces Rajesh Gopinathan as the CEO of TCS?
All the useless managers will be fired?

Unconfirmed layoffs in PwC SAP? Does anybody know?

Hi all,

If people are getting fired from companies only.because they are on bench for more than 3 months, is it wise approach to switch with higher salary now?

Please list companies who are firing people or asking them to resign so that we get a fair idea of which company to join?

Share thoughts pls 🙏

Anyone dealt with age discrimination at work or thought they were fired because of it? I have a strong hunch I was let go because I'm older than most of the team and they're trying to get a "fresh perspective." To me it just sounds like they're firing anyone over 50.

Is there mass layoffs happening in the industry right now? Is the rumour true? Are we back in a recession?

Just a joke, take it as a joke-
.
Recently Better (dot) com's employees were fired from the job.
If you are some HR/Senior management personnel and hiring them.
You should reconsider your decision as they will make your organisation BETTER. :-)

Heard BCG laid off quite a few people this summer. Is this true?

Anybody else also having the layoffs anxiety already ? Any update/rumours about GL ?

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?

Does anyone have any insights about the layoff rumors at Morgan Stanley?

I know agencies across the board did some layoffs right before the holidays, but when do we think hiring will pick up again? Getting to a point where I feel like I need to start thinking about a change.

Got laid off. Have savings to hold me until I find a new position but mostly I'm just embarrassed. Has anyone ever gotten laid off and not told their friends/partner about it? I just don't want people in my circle to know I failed basically.

I got laid off today 🥲 would appreciate anyone who can help refer UX or product designer roles. 🙏

If I get fired while on OPT without getting my H1-B stamped, is it useless or can it be used in future for some other job?

Has anyone ever done aggression training for their dog? Met with a trainer who basically wants us to either keep our dog crated or on a leash at all times and said no pets or play time for now. Our dog has been acting out ever since we brought home our newborn and also bit our groomer. Trainer has me terrified that the dog will hurt the baby but my heart is breaking that I can’t give any “love” to my dog right now. Any similar experiences or thoughts?

What do you include in your competitive audits? (Not creative)

How is utilization calculated? What happens if we are on the bench?

Is MBB and management consulting losing its value among young people as employer? Since i noticed majority of young people currently want to work for FAANG, startups, crypto, Unicorns, want to open their own things, etc. I guess in 2000s and 2010s consulting was a top choice for graduates. But what about now? Would love to listen to your thoughts and observations on that one

Hello! Anyone work at GE Healthcare?

If your an experienced staff or senior with hedge- fund experience and want to move to Dallas, DM me to discuss discretely. Honestly great team. Turnover has been low for last 18 months at 10%. Compared to 40-50% in other places. Crazy hours feb-apr, 40 apr-jul, 45 in Aug, maybe 50-60 that last week of aug/ early sept. <40 post 9/15. We have a need at the senior level to fill a gap. Seniors help is needed everywhere so if your interested, come cash in your chips!

What is resource management group?

Did Republicans think this through? Are they assuming they’re now powerful enough they can stop the electoral reaction to this? I’m seeing people radicalizing in real time across my social networks. Republicans supporting Biden. Formerly moderate Democrats coming out in favor of court-packing.

Was this all really worth it?

I think we have tried our best to explain to hopeful “Magas” nothing is changing and trump just needs their money. They hate logic, facts and truth. Can we please stop wasting our energy. 😅

Once, when I was little, I was playing Monopoly with my cousin. I was the banker, and I liberally “quantitatively eased” myself whenever he wasn’t looking.

I got unlucky and lost the game but I threw an absolute FIT, accusing my cousin of cheating because I knew how severely I’d cheated myself. How could he have won if HE didn’t cheat?!

Donald Trump’s righteous, desperate conviction is that of a losing cheater. I only hope he gets the time out he so richly deserves.

For buy side analysts, are there logical career moves one can make after having a couple of years of working experience?

Guys I'm confused, do we have an IRA account with PwC or is it just 401K?

Has PwC paid out this month's expenses yet? Amex isn't pleased..

What phone are you most excited for?

MBB folks, do you and your coworkers even consider Big 4 people management consultants? Trying to gauge the general consensus.

Love the discussions on here especially w the perspective that anonymity gives us the opportunity to voice extreme positions and polarizing disagreements that may not have been said in normal settings

Hired as SA1. if my utilization is low for round table but I’ve gotten good Snapshots will I go up to SA2 or SA1B, which I don’t want of course.

Anyone here work for PwC Seattle? How's the culture? Good people? Do people travel much, or is it mostly local work? I'm an intern who received an offer elsewhere but considering asking for there.

Best consulting firms for defense companies? What credentials do they look for?

Why do some people get laid off and others not? Is it always utilization? Do people typically know they're at risk before it gets to that point?

Notice there are so many people with debate experience in consulting. Kinda impressed. Any highly recommended books related to debate or communication in general?

A reminder to all: we are going through very difficult times. Please help someone who has gotten laid off if you can!

Owe ~$4,500 in taxes for 2020. Anything I can do to reduce this amount? Going to contribute some extra money to 401k to get me to 19,500 for the year. Anything else?

MBB - how long is your typical strategy engagement?

You know it's a slow week when the highlight is when your comment to a fishbowl post gets more upvotes than the initial post

Any recommendations for good work desks - not planning to splurge (max budget: $200-300 but prefer less than $200). Just need space for my monitor, laptop, and some storage space.
