Follow up re KPMG layoffs.
They said this will be it for a RIF. (I hope so but don’t trust them.) 20 opted in, 35 moved to another position in the Firm and 15 were being let go. That makes 70 total when they told us only 60 people would be impacted.

Someone called them out on the first call a few weeks ago that they told us last year there wouldn’t be any more reductions. They said they never said that but I looked at my notes and they definitely did. So I don’t trust anything they say anymore.

Layoffs also in: KTech, E&M, L&D

This week or near future?

I saw 44 listings on a variety of websites but nothing came up on the KPMG page when I searched there.

They let 15 EA’s go (down from the originally quoted 60) and are now hiring EA’s for the EASC (executive Assistant support center) remote but must be located in Orlando or Phoenix.

PwC1, they are with a few tweaks. Vicky A joined KPMG from PwC. A few differences are the EAs in the markets and the off-site support staff are all called EAs. No “team assistants.” But the ASK EAs (remote support) function like PwC TAs and primarily support non PPMD staff. My bet is the ASK EAs are earning less than most of their former colleagues with jobs that carry heavier micromanagement. In addition the average age of EAs at KPMG was much older than it ever was at PwC. That playing field is being leveled.

Great people to work with but not to work for. You stay here or there and your salary atrophies.

Does it look bad in my resume to resign after less than a year at a job? writing here the time I’ve spent at each company since graduating college:
- 2 years at company 1 (resigned to move back to home country)
- 2 years at company 2 (resigned and moved back to the US)
- went back to company 1 (it had grown exponentially after 2 years so came back at higher position) (resigned after 1 year to join a startup at director level)
- 6 months at startup and I want to quit with nothing lined up
