Just heard EY is about to make more layoffs in audit too

It's refreshing to see RBC's committment to no 2020 layoffs. Anyone know if any other banks are following suit?

Been trying to find a new job because $112k just doesn't seem right for 3+ years as an Eng 3. On the east coast wanting to move out to California. Not getting many bites. Do employers ignore applications for people who would need to relocate?

Can I over boil my pasta water?

Struggling with this whole work life balance thing. Is it possible to have a semblance of a life/hobbies? If so, how? Most of my socializing is honestly in the microcosm of the firm (drink nights etc)
