@PwC 2- it was complicated. But 6 months is what was in writing on my employment contract on mykcurve > my personal details > change your name > miscellaneous > employment contract (that might not be exact, but that's how you get to your contract, it's under "change your name" at the very bottom) unless they removed them....

@ PwC 2 & 3 - I negotiated what my contract said, they tried to say some addendum came out, but the addendum wasn't an enforceable contract, I did all of that by myself to get my 6 months. But getting over that, I needed an attorney, and it wasn't severance anymore, it became a settlement for wrongful termination based on several factors. So, it depends on your case, and what the situation is.

You’re overreacting... if HR ain’t there you’re fine.

They’ll put HR on it if it is a lay off or firing.

^@PwC14 I will find out my fate tomorrow.

@ OP really??? In November!?

Hope you got decent severance.... I got 6 months (a few months ago)

Hi Fishes

Please advice

DXC hired me for Indian client .My job profile on system admin. Work will be on Legacy Technology. Do I get chance to upgrade to cloud and shift to different Client

Most of the review on DXC is negative. How will be job security and work life balance. In most review I see "termination & layoffs." How is current situation in 2022
Thanks!

Do you take the current economy into consideration when receiving job offers? For example you receive a good offer from a company like Meta/TikTok but are hesitant because they could be laying off soon or rescind an offer versus a lower offer at a more traditional and stable company that tends to be less reactionary with regards to layoffs? Not my current scenario but just curious. I would like to make a move from current employer but this economy has me spooked.

But I’ve seen girls that are objectively more unattractive than me have mates. So it must be a confidence issue? Those girls seem to glow while I am so sad. Or it’s the guys I go on dates with?

TELUS culture is one of the strongest aspects of Telus.

Telus is one of the most friendly and encouraging companies to work for. Telus doesn't layoff unless it has too (Telus will place you elsewhere instead). Telus is one of those workplaces that people stay for decades and refer their families and friends. You will not be disappointed at Telus if positive work environment is important to you.

Have a big interview tomorrow. The question I dread the most is about why you’re looking for a new job. The honest answer is that there isn’t enough work to go around at my agency and I want to get ahead of the inevitable layoffs. What’s the best way to tell them this? Do I just make something else up entirely?

If you miss the ‘Golden Age’ of television, I highly recommend tuning into Sean, Laura, and Tucker on FOX. An argument can be made that they are the Sopranos, The Wire, and Breaking Bad of their format. Unlike those works of fiction however, these shows and their respective hosts provide insight into our real world in a way no screenwriter ever could.

Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.
