I don't understand the concept of receiving a 4 on Year End (and getting laid off). There is no set percentage to give people 4's and 5's right? How does one mess up that badly?

Tax Senior here. I’m well liked around the office, I put in the hours and work hard, I haven’t had any dumpster fire projects, but I am a mediocre performer compared to my peers (not as strong project management, communication, not as confident). I just got told they’re firing me. Should I expect severance? Have other people been fired for similar? What did you do with your career?

What is the severance pay in pwc India?
Does everyone who gets fired be eligible for it?

Does anyone know the criteria used to determine who is selected to be laid off due to COVID?

Layoffs at Integer Denver today? Somebody spill....

Longshot post but does anyone have friends at City of Seattle, King County? Just recently got laid off by Accenture and I want to pivot towards work in the community, urban planning, etc. Really just want to do fulfilling work. Looking for a reference! 🙏

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Should people be fired for lack of people skills?

Hi everyone, unfortunately I was recently affected by a layoff at my company. About 30% of their marketing department along with other departments were all let go. I have 3+ professional experience with product marketing, digital marketing, and event management. If you know of anyone looking for marketing specialists or just want to network in general let me know. I would love to connect!

Boyfriend has seemed to be dropping a ton on me lately, even after I got bad news that my company is t doing so hot this week and layoffs are approaching. First it was that we may be moving to another state for his job, then it was that his brother may need to move in with us for a few months after he graduates

It’s just a bit overwhelming at this time and I’m not sure how to communicate through all of this being thrown at me. 3 yrs together and we were friends for many years before that.

#MAIPSummit2020:

Hi fishes. Is PepsiCo providing virtual joining?

Just had a great networking call with someone at a company I’d like to work for… should I follow up asking to be connected to another person on the team? I hear it is a good networking strategy.

Also, any general tips for maintaining a good relationship with someone you just networked with?

And if you finally have six figures cash ready to invest, what's the best place to start? Which broker / financial advisor would you recommend? This is only for 3-5 years to ultimately buy a decent home for my family.

Yeah nothing like staying out drinking all night with your team and then all of you show up while suffering... #teambuilding

I have an informational interview with a Managing Director on Friday about a manager role. I currently serve in a client services role and do not have traditional consulting experience (billable hours, etc.). Additionally, while I’ve worked with McKinsey, Accenture, McKesson, and other teams on major projects, I don’t have experience putting together the strategy, more of a support function. Feeling a tad intimidated! Any tips would be so very appreciated!
