Hi Everyone,

I’m a UI/UX designer recently laid off from an agency in Detroit. I have 10+ years experience with a background in front-end development. If anyone here is looking for candidates, PM me.

How do background checks work with a potential employer? Is it just contacting deloittHR and verifying employment dates and title? I’m guessing HR can’t say anything about performance or layoffs, etc?

I am trying my best to get laid off 🙃

Hey Donald Trump, you’re fired!

Getting fired from a toxic work environment is it the best or worst thing that can happen?

A reminder for those laid off: your job doesn't define you, nor should you let it define your worth. You are MUCH more than your employer & you should act as such. It's a part of you, not all of you.

What levels are Deloitte layoffs happening at? Analyst, Manager? Any particular competencies or skillsets being cut?

Just heard of the story of a senior who was fired because she was interviewing at a new firm, and this new firm called her current firm for references. Obviously they (cont’d)...

I got laid off during the beginning of the pandemic. Since then I’ve been struggling with drug use and finances. Deloitte hired me out grad school. I’ve been unable to find a job in IT Controls. Any help? I did IT Controls Audit Readiness for a couple years. The market is so niche and being black makes it twice as hard to find work. I really need some help landing a new role folks. I’m 22 days clean!

If the economy slows, how do you think management consulting will perform? Can consultants expect layoffs?

Hi Mindtree Minds, Can you guys pls suggest about the bench policy in Mindtree ? Is it like 60 days or 3 client interviews & after that we are laid off? Kindly suggest as I can see many questions in different bowls regarding Mindtree job security & bench policy
Thanks in Advance!

I got divorced and laid off all in the span of six months. It’s been the worst year of my life but I’m still here and I’m going to make it through this somehow. Really hoping 2020 brings better days.

Hey fellow brothers and sisters.... would like you send prayers my way.... been laid off since October...applied and have been rejected multiple times.... kinda loosing hope... need a miracle soon

I start mid July as a campus hire analyst, and all these posts about layoffs are fucking with me. Do analysts get laid off, or are we cheap money-makers for the company?

Recently got laid off from PwC and started working in industry and I wish I could say I'm better off. It's still challenging and interesting work, but I miss consulting culture :(

Accenture squad...with our fiscal year coming to an end and ratings about to begin, should we expect to see layoffs similar to Deloitte and PwC this year?

Which dept/scope is your agency likely to layoff first, as clients drawback their budgets during recession?

For those of you who were laid off this year and have managed to find new jobs, did your compensation increase, decrease, or stay the same, from old job to new job?

Can you get fired or laid off if you are on a short term disability leave? Does this call for a lawsuit if this happens?

Handshaking in our post (?) pandemic world. Or the greeting half-hug/air kiss so common in some agencies. Work, colleagues, clients, etc.
Yay or nay?

Do we get a refund for working in a state without income tax? Live in New York, project in Texas.

Can you post an example of what a really complete snapshot request would look like?

One year into consulting, I have successfully mastered the art of falling asleep before takeoff and not waking up until after landing without noise canceling earphones.
