I have a dear friend who was recent laid off from a tech company. I’m currently in my first in-house counsel position and was able to secure the job off of cold applying and don’t really have much advice to give. I really want to help support. I know about goinhouse.com and I know people say recruiters (I never found them helpful so wondering how). How did you find your gig? Sites? Been laid off and how to bounce back? Thanks!
Anyone else feel a little uneasy that the industry press is praising a CMO who fired the agency who resurrected KFC, ran one of the most brutal pitch processes in years and has immediately made the work much worse?

I feel the same way. For me, it's because I graduated during the great recession and grew up in the rust belt. It was hard to get my first job outta college and had a lot of friends laid off. I also have a lot of family growing up that lost everything because of downsizing.
I've worked really hard to change my mindset. It's not conducive to this career to have a mindset of paranoia and desperation. I can't really give you advice except to look around you and realize things aren't like that here. It's not happening to others and won't happen to you.
Imposter syndrome. OP- this is normal. Head up
Pwc1-can you expand on that? I'm at Cap, but would like the outsider's perspective.
From an outsiders perspective (so take it with a grain of salt), Cap has turned into an Indian Pure Play type brand with a lot of ok technologists, but no real business value to clients. Customers are choosing Cap when price is the key decision point, which puts you in competition with the Tech Mahindras of the world instead of the -Accentures, Deloittes or PwCs.
Your view may be different than mine, but that’s what I’m hearing.
Thanks KPMG 1.. guess my circumstances are similar.
I would think that fear is exacerbated given the current climate at Cap. You may want to consider keeping options open.
Same - would like to hear the outside perspective on this - also have same mindset,op and similar background to kpmg
Is it because of people being put in the global pool?
PwC2...?
