Yeah based on the pipeline I looked at earlier, I'm pretty sure it's not practice wide. Sources are misleading you OP

SCOP... I gave you the answer to your question, if you were looking for anything beyond an affirmative circle jerk, why ask the question? Did your friends exceed their utilization targets? Did your friends have a strong internal network of individuals that would go to bat for them? Did your friends achieve any certifications or extend their competencies into areas that the firm is short staffed? People get fired throughout the year, two underperforming individuals getting fired is not indicative of layoffs. And I'm part of the firms SAP practice as well, so 👍

so sorry to hear that SA1. Let me know if I can be of any help. I am in SAP too. Not sure what your module is but would be happy to help. is this a mass layoff ?

M1: that’s what I heard. Was thinking of applying but not sure if I should.

D1: I am interested in knowing the cause too.

M2: yes to all your needless question. Why always assume that underperforming individuals get fired? to your question - util 90%, cert - S4, UI etc, 12 years, high performer with 2.. cant believe I am answering to you.

M2 was asking about your friends that were laid off, not you...

M2: it’s good to defend your firm and practice but you should not be so away from reality that you loose your way in practice. If having good connections will save your ass from getting fired then big 4 will never have layoffs as everyone more or less has internal connections and certifications and others.

D2: I think I know what he was asking and the stats I gave was for my friends.. 🤦‍♀️

I seem to go through this cycle where I'll try to fix a problem, fix it and then go back to my old ways. I'm trying to fight against it but basically my performance review is coming up and I think it's likely I'm going to be let go because of my failure to meet expectations. Earlier in the year I was going through a rough time and working through it, I have gotten better over the course of the year but I feel it's not enough. I got fired from my last job. I'm so sick of this cycle

I work on a consulting team at a large software company. I’m a job hopper, around 2 years each at my first and second jobs and a little over a year at this job. I recently found out they’re shutting my team down. We’re not fired, but they’re transferring us to the core implementation team, which has a horrible reputation for malignancy, overworking, and isn’t at all what I was hired to do. How hard is it going to be to for me to find a new job? Should I just stay and try things out? What next?

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❤️

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.
