For anyone who was laid off this year, were you able to negotiate your severance pay?

I'm not one to advocate people being fired, but how the fuck are these refs still employed??

Just got laid off. Why hire so many people if you don’t have the work to support the staff? We can’t always control our bench time. This firm really is the fucking worst

My brother is a mechanic with 10+ years experience but was laid off due to COVID. He's having a hard time even finding jobs to apply for and asked me for advice. I don't even know what someone can do without a degree. He has valuable hard skills but I just don't think there's a demand in NYC right now. Should I advise him to go to school? He'd have to fully finance his degree and I'm just not sure if it's worth it for him to start over at the bottom, or what industry he'd even fit in...

Do all non US citizens will be fired tomorrow? Per Trump’s tweet? Revoking H1b And Green Card?

The more pedestrian your intellect, the better fit you are at D Heard of a colleague with an FRM charter being laid off today. Overall excellent person. And you won't believe who they promote year after year.. the character, curiosity and quality of the lifers Don't join this firm if you for a love of learning and to be inspired. Join if you are a middling who wants a good brand to hack ahead in life and rise above your station

I don’t feel bad at all for people getting fired for making reckless remarks on their social media platforms about BLM. You have a choice to get on the right side of history, make sure you choose wisely.

I messed up. Told my roommate I would contribute to pay for a small couch since she sold the one she brought to our apartment with her for $ (got laid off). I am 21 and on a crazy strict budget. She is showing me $500-800 couches, while I was thinking of Facebook marketplace couches. If I could, I would give her the $ in the blink of an eye, but I literally CAN’T 😭 How do I tell her this after I already said I would? I know, I messed up here - salvageable?

So was Gina Carano fired for being conservative?

I didn’t get laid off from Havas like so many others did yesterday, but I want to know how long I can work at this agency without losing my reputation. Industry people, I need real talk. How much like fools does the ad industry consider people who work at Havas? Is it understood in this climate that somtimes you just need a job or do we look like talentless sellouts for working here? When recruiters see books from a Havas employee, do they toss it straight into the garbage?

Had an expense violation and was fired from Deloitte and signed an offer, in the background check for employment verification, can I select the reason for leaving as “resigned”? Would they ever find out how I left Deloitte? Rather not disclose the reason for fear of losing the offer.

Deloitte US doing layoffs, KPMG doing layoffs and reducing salaries... What’s next in the pipeline folks? Are PwC and E&Y also going to do same? Everyone removing their bonuses as well? (All discussions specific to US)

Let’s play a game: I come in late, I leave early, I’ve barely made anything, and some would say I’m overpaid. How quickly am I fired?

Does anyone know what severance pay is at Wunderman? Is it more than a week per year?

So what’s happening in the local shops? Layoffs? Hiring freezes?

Anyone fired for refusing to work without PPE?

Would you be interested in a program that allows you to explore yourself and find community when going through major life challenges of being international in America. Like being on OPT 60 days, being laid off on visa and the list goes on..

Hearing there will be some heavy layoffs in Technology. Anyone have any details?

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

Have layoffs affected your area of corporate functions yet? I'm seeing a lot on the consulting side but not as much in CF.

Thoughts on Alex Ohanian's resignation from the reddit board and urging the board to fill that position with a black candidate?

How hard is it to switch from IT m&a to business m&a (i.e., what financial modeling skills do you need? Is it easy to pick up from YouTube?)

Hello Everyone, I've been in full cycle sales for over 7 years now and would like to become a Sales Engineer. I am currently in Cloud sales and looking to transition into becoming a Sales Engineer...how do I become one since I have not technical background?

What is the typical increment we get on getting promoted to SDE 2 from SDE1? In reference to product based companies like Cisco, Amazon..

What are your thoughts about investing in current market? I want to make an investment but feel it is inflated and bound to correct.

Hey everyone. 28 y o Chicago dude here

If you had a project car, what would it be? For me, it'd be a C3 Vette with a thoroughly modernized architecture and suspension. If it was a truly classic car, I'd just do a restomod, but I don't consider the C3 to really be a classic.

That feeling when a large non essential meeting is scheduled for 4 to 5 pm the day you close for the long weekend...

Any one out there who has a genuinely informed view of the capacity of a biglaw remote access system (Citrix and VPN) that was designed to facilitate remote working by a fraction (contd in comments)

Does anyone want to case tonight at 8pm EST?

We put our families at risk every day to help our communities. Why do some see us as the enemy?

I'd really like to try out a "virtual field trip" Any suggestions for making it run smoothly?

When you get staffed on a local role #byestatuses

Controversial question - would you support a program where the gov pays say 20k if you decide to get sterilized with no kids? And maybe 15k if you have 1 and so on? You should have to be 21 years old to make the decision. Feel like it would be a way to help pull some out of poverty and can make a better life for themselves and if they already had a kid for their kid as well and would help prevent generational poverty.

Does anyone here work at PA Consulting? What’s it like? I’ve just been approached by them, not sure if I should go for it
