Fears of a recession are reasonably causing people to take a second look at their job security. Seeing as many lawyers are working in specialty tax within PA how many of you are worried about a potential slowdown/layoffs within specialty tax? If not why do you feel you won’t be as affected?

Hi All, posting on behalf of a sibling based in Bangalore,India. She has been impacted by the ongoing layoffs and is in search of a new role. She has about 6 years of experience working in Business Development in the Edtech domain. If you or anyone you know is hiring then please comment and I can get you connected.

Do you have any tips/advise for someone who was laid off recently and early in their career?

Need some advice, I honestly suck at sales and it’s just something that’s effecting my mental health. I have grit and I bang out a bunch of calls but I’m not seeing any fruits of my labor. My anxiety of getting fired have been through the roof and I honestly just want to do something else but all I have is recruiting exp along with SDR experience but I have. Certifications In Customer success which I actually understand. Just looking for a possible referal for a functional position.

Any creatives impacted by Forsman Bodenfors layoffs? That agency does beautiful, powerful work.

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

Recent lateral junior associate in brand new practice where I'm the only associate. I'm probably going to bill 1,500 hours max this year due to being very slow and taking time off for a delayed honeymoon which I disclosed during my interview process. I have been told my work product is good, I don't turn anything down, I participate in non-billable work, I'm responsive and I always let people know I'm available to help. Do I need to be worried about getting fired for low hours?

Hi all, i was fired today because i said the truth!! Isn’t that interesting?

Big layoffs at Booz Allen Dubai and Abu Dhabi Cyber teams.

Had a glowing fantastic performance review last year. This year no review, just a meeting with managing partner and HR to tell me I am fired and to leave now. No bad performance. Is it just the money?

Hey everybody. Got laid off at D. BTA within strategy and analytics. Mostly LS/HC experience. Anybody can help out with a referral anywhere? Thank you!

Is it a good time to switch to Deloitte considering all the recent layoffs ? Applying for a manager position in Deloitte Digital , not expecting more than 10% hike from my current salary.
Thank you

Is there a risk of accepting a role with Upstart currently? I seen a 7% layoff recently for hourly employees but I would be salaried. I am well aware it’s a risk in tech overall right now but curious on thoughts thanks!

When leaving as an audit manager, if you’re going to a competitor and they ask you to leave the day you give notice, do they always pay you out the 2 weeks or are you technically fired?

Hi,

Is this a good time to join HP? As they have recently announced 6000 layoffs in 2 years.

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person. Heard a technique which is to drop off the call bc you “assume the call is over” (which seems like a great way to get fired especially if it’s a way higher up’s kids - plus it feels rather passive aggressive.) Thoughts?

How bad is the firing cycle at PwC? Do new associates with albeit low utilization have anything to worry about?

Recs for best at-home coffee maker? Not a huge fan of Keurig/K-cups. Willing to spend $$ — but not a lot of time/hassle each morning making it. What do you all use??

What are your book recommendations?

Hello fishes,
How much value would an AWS certified Developer associate certification add to one's profile?
And how convenient would it be to switch to DevOps with that certification and the necessary skills?

After I joined the force I noticed some people I considered friends have slowly distanced themselves from me. Anyone else go through something similar?

Have a 45 minute skills interview for a manager position, any insight on what that entails? TIA @

Apply or wait a year?

Hello Everyone ☺️

I am planning to move to Randstad for talent coordinator position.
What is the package I could ask for??

How is the Work life balance in Randstad offshore services??

My application for an M&A spot at Deloitte was rejected in under 48 hrs!

I love international tax (in core) and don’t mind compliance at all but it’s been nearly 100% of what I do. Any ways of balancing out with more structuring/planning?

Some background: there’s only 3 of us IT locally and with the departure of our SM, the little structuring/planning work I do see will probably dry up when they leave. Do I network with other bigger offices to pick up that kind of work?

Lawyers in Public Accounting, what have your non-public accounting job experiences been like? If you’re currently in public accounting, are you happy where you’re at or do you aspire to do something different? I’m always curious to hear about career paths.

Who is still hiring? JD/LLM/CPA.

Can tax lawyers in public accounting feasibly make to a move to IRS counsel? Also, would it be worth that move?

Anyone leave PA to work at IRS? What was your experience?

What is the learning curve/different expectations for an attorney versus a CPA in a first year associate role? I just started, but a bit confused on how I can best contribute my legal skills and anxious about not being an expert on accounting principles.

Anyone have a full-time Big 4 offer (JD/LLM) with a signing bonus in Dallas or similar COL? My recruiter says it’s not negotiable but if I know of someone from a competitor with a higher bonus then she can see what she can do.

Dm me if any attorney is looking for referral to BDO. (US experienced hires only)

Let's discuss, what do you think of the LSAT becoming optional or the ABA abolishing it all together? Looks like it'll be gone by 2025.

Currently accepted an internship at a firm for the winter and also just accepted a separate internship over the summer with a B4 firm. Should I inform the other firm that I already accepted a later internship with a B4 firm or keep it to myself until the internship is over? They are totally different positions and I wanted to have some experience with both but worry they will take it wrong.

I am not in law school yet. But I was wondering where I can find out about other opportunities besides the standard tax attorney route. I am almost a CPA and currently in audit.
