Got laid off due to COVID and have been struggling to find a job. I wasn’t happy and my mgmt sucked so this is a good thing. Now I really hate the idea of working for a company. I know everyone works and I’m not a genius who can just start a scalable biz. But I just can’t get my head around the idea of doing something I hate for a paycheck. All these years of busy seasons burnt me out. Struggling in between doing something I enjoy for less pay and taxes for more pay.

For those at MBB prior to COVID and were married with kids at the time, how did you juggle your family responsibilities with the demands of the job? Asking as I’ll want to have a realistic discussion with my spouse when travel picks back up again (perhaps 2022).

My wife’s 30th birthday is coming up at the end April. I want to do something nice for her but obviously there are Covid constraints. Any good ideas or recommendations? She’s not a fancy dinner kind of person so defaulting to that doesn’t work haha thanks in advance.

Anyone know if all the layoffs have been completed/announced yet? Honestly, I love my job and there's nowhere else I'd rather work. Want to know if I can exhale yet.

I was laid off a couple months ago from my content writer job at a B2B SaaS company. I made 55k. I am seeking entry/associate level digital marketing positions in Boston and am trying to figure out what salary to shoot for. I have a year and some change of experience in content writing, email marketing, and SEO. I also have dabbled in sales and government work for nearly a year. I have a B.A. from a selective uni. I have been told to shoot for 65-75k for my next job. Does this sound right?

Hi fellow fish - I was part of the DoorDash layoffs today, and am actively searching for a new opportunity. I was recently a Senior Manager in Strategy & Operations, and have 11+ years of experience across consulting, tech, start-ups, and various sectors. Please let me know of any open roles that may be a fit, and TIA!

Any firms paying for car rides to the office in light of coronavirus?

Anyone else worried about layoffs? I lost my double dip job so now I have to rely on one freelance salary.

So I was fired yesterday. I’m choosing to see this as an opportunity to make some changes, instead of just jumping into another law firm job I’m not cut out for. Does anyone have recommendations for career coaches, ADHD coaches, or ideally someone who does both?

Does anyone know what severance pay after resignation due to performance issue Company told me doesn't need to serve notice period and in f&f settlement we will pay severance pay the company can pay for 3 months notice period in basic salary as lieu thereof for me or not

For the first time in my 3 years I have agreed to talk to a recruiter that reached out via LinkedIn regarding a similar opportunity in my city. Have never done this before. What kind of questions are appropriate for me to ask and what should I keep in mind during the conversation? With all the layoffs going on figured there is no harm in building relationships with recruiters.

Is it any surprise we’re seeing mass layoff in tech? Years of rich friends hiring rich friends with no work ethic has lead us here. I know way too many tech people who work maybe an hour a day followed by errands and traveling. A lot of getting in these places is who you know, apparently that doesn’t work out like it used to. The amount of people who worked for Meta, Apple, Amazon, etc for a few months / maybe a year is astounding. it’s around that time frame a boss can tell if you’re worth it

Is anyone here a conflicts attorney? Can you walk me through a day to day and what you need to be successful at it? Thanks!

I started my law career in house where I spent two years and just moved to an actual firm about a month ago. How long does it typically take to ramp people up? Getting kind of worried about hitting my billable requirement.

Took three days off to be with my wife while she stays at the hospital to visit her mom, who just had a stroke. It’s sad that I even considered whether I should take time off but earlier on in my career I definitely wouldn’t have, so hopefully my priorities are getting straightened out. For those of you debating whether to take the time off, trust me, take it.

Any insight into Squire's starting salary in Cleveland?

I have an interview with Korn Ferry for an associate principal role and am curious about others’ experiences have been with work-life balance here. Also, I have an idea of what I should be compensated in this type of role, but any insights on how they pay compared to others would be helpful. Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
