PwC: False. Directors at Deloitte also do the firing.

What service line are you in? Fed, commercial?

Consulting, S&O?

Directors don't have ability to fire...on ppl that sign for firm

@pwc2 is this true for all firms?

What part of Deloitte are you with? Conflating? Advisory? And what department?

*consulting

S&O?

Consulting

When's the meeting?

@OP are you two the only ones on the call or is there a third person as well?

@D4 it's an in person meeting. I'm assuming the HR will dial in..

.

Deloitte5- Directors are part of PPDs. So yes directors at Deloitte can fire...Pwc directors=senior manager. So I highly doubt they have ability to fire

Hi, received an offer from another Big4 in Amsterdam (currently working in Eastern Europe), but relocating, I’m concerned about potential layoffs in the coming period being the last to join the team.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
