Have any of you guys had the bad luck of being fired 2 or more times in your career due to bad company financials, AI investments, restructuring or something else.

How did you explain the gaps in your resume and the reasons for these firings and gaps to recruiters? I got fired 3 times due to restructuring, project shutdowns and I'm worried, I also have a 1 year career gap since I faced rejections in like 20 interviews when I was a fresher after my first firing

See, I was laid off once and I had quit due to burnout once. Currently unemployed, the market is thought but 80% of the time I do not regret quitting as my mental health was taking a toll due to burnout - unclear goals, no support from management, long hours, selfish colleagues all this amounted to my resignation. Not getting calls doesn't bother me much as I was little prepared for this situation. No one should go through what I have gone through in that toxic culture. I have quit wells Fargo and I don't regret it - I won't recommend anyone to work there

Hello PwC AC Friends,

I have been on bench since I joined the firm 3 months ago. Now I have got project but still on bench. I have got mail regarding not raising snapshots because I was on bench so i didn't do anything except trainings and some learning. I don't have hours to raise snapshot for.

What shall I do in this case? I am very much worried that if i don't have any project hours to show, will they fire me or what actions are supposed to be taken ? Thanks.
