I don't know if I should be worried about the layoff situation with EY. Is it performance based?

I heard it was attractiveness based. All the partners rate the staff on a scale of 1-10. If you average out to a 4 or lower they let you go.

It's performance based and then some. For example if you got any type of negative feedback in Q4 of 2016 they will include that in your mid year review even if you got penalized for it already. They use that and the so called peer factor to determine what your rank should be. They are not basing all of their decisions on your individual 2017 performance which by far is ludicrous to me but this is what I was told on the west yesterday.

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.
