Do we really have lay offs happening in zs ?
Hi fishes,
Any guess how many people are laid off from Publicis sapient in past few days? Really scared for my future as I'm also under probation period and deeply regret for my choice of joining this firm...I don't understand why were they recruiting peeps when they were short of projects. Publicis Sapient
Does ey gds lay off?

Yes, but she got her mat leave and insurance and everything paid, as if she were still working.
Yes, I’ve seen it. Doesn’t matter if it’s part of a large layoff and can’t be said it’s because she’s pregnant. Or if it’s a small layoff but they’ve had the list a long time/before the pregnancy was known. It’s not a magic protection shield.
It goes both ways. For example, older workers are usually given a piece of paper that tells them the ages of other people laid off so they can’t sue. Protected class also means reasonable accommodations, which often entails missing work for doctor appointments, time to sit, not being able to travel.
I had a friend get laid off while on maternity leave. They paid out the rest of her maternity leave plus severance. So while it sucked, sounded like they took care of her. Ultimately she didn’t end up going back to work anyway, so maybe was a blessing in disguise
No. That’s so terrible.
Yes, but it was part of a larger group layoff.
I was laid off on mat leave. It sucks.
Sounds like the time I was laid off after just having my child and told by HR to enjoy the summer with my baby. GFY!
