I felt very good following Dana’s Town Hall. Having heard other networks are already facing furloughs and layoffs, did you feel as encouraged?

Anyone else just waiting for impending layoffs or are we at the end of the recent wave?

I think everyone will agree with this that in last 1-2 years we have seen a tremendous change in Indian IT industry and tremendous growth in Salaries and negotiations. Can someone explain me the factors that are triggering it even when the world markets are in huge correction phase and we are also seeing layoffs and revoked offers.

In big law going on 6 years and I’ve always met my hours, but lately, cannot get enough work to keep busy. It’s been slow for some time, but I didn’t notice because I was working on matters in other offices. Is it time to move on? Are people really going to be laid off for not hitting hrs?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞

Who here has been laid off? How did you bounce back?

WFH/Layoff/Security
Hi,
CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.
Is it worth looking for another opportunity?
I am afraid after seeing layoffs news of EPAM, Publicis Sapient & most of the other companies calling employees in the office.
I love my WFH in PwC India & base location of Kolkata. & the best thing is stability in PwC India, they never lay off!!

Just got fired.. any opportunities out there in North America.

Strategy consultant, manager level ; experience in consumer markets: I heard technology sector is hiring. Open to relocation

Has anyone been fired? How’d you bounce back? How did you approach it when applying for new jobs? I’m legitimately worried I’ll be fired and could use some advice.

hearing there was massive layoffs at concentric today. in the dozens. can someone confirm or refute?

My dad was recently laid off from his job as a derivatives trader in NYC. He’s been down in the dumps and interested in a new career. I’m trying to help as best I can. Any suggestions/ideas/leads?

Any minority lawyers in here that were blacklisted from big firms for a time gap or after layoff? How did you move forward?

Was laid off in Sept. Unfortunately we will be seeing many more coming. It's what happens in a recession. Unfortunately I now also have my age against me. Not in a mentally good place at the moment.

I was recently laid off at Snap. Does anybody have new opportunities in tech for a software engineer, 2 yrs of backend experience? Appreciate any referrals!

Got laid off in tech corp dev making 250-300 all in. Have an offer to join a fairly new family office investment team in PE buyouts but will be a fairly significant cash pay cut vs what I was making in tech corp dev. I’ve always been interested in doing investing. All things being equal, is there better upside to take the fam office to do PE (at a pay cut for now), or go do another corp dev job? 6-7 YOE

Any companies looking for a very Senior Software Engineer (backend) with 14 YOE??

My boyfriend's company just started layoffs. He's the last engineer standing on his team, but he's on the lookout for new opportunities just in case they decide to cut his entire department.

Any leads on companies that are still actively hiring would be much appreciated!

I am seeking new employment, I was recently laid off due to lack of work. I would very much appreciate any leads. I have a Bs in Construction Management and over 15 years experience with Revit and AutoCAD and 7 years of plumbing design. I have solid references and impeccable work ethic. I truly enjoy what I do. Working remotely the last three years has become a way of my life and supports our current situation well, therefore I am seeking a similar role but will consider other opportunities.

I know this doesn’t count as an interview, but overall professional advice needed:
Any tips on asking for better severance pay?

Any creatives impacted by Forsman Bodenfors layoffs? That agency does beautiful, powerful work.

Has anyone ever been "let go of"? Either laid off or fired. How did you get through it?

Anyone hiring AE’s in Detroit? I got laid off for the first time ...

Does anyone have entry level marketing tech roles?

Hey fishes!

What according to you is a decent as well as average package (current market standards) for analytics associate with 4yrs of experience? Your response will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

We're discussing the company holiday plan and it looks like my manager is going to pressure me to work on Thanksgiving this year. Late-stage capitalist america, now without holidays!

Was laid off in Sept. Unfortunately we will be seeing many more coming. It's what happens in a recession. Unfortunately I now also have my age against me. Not in a mentally good place at the moment.

Folks who left Deloitte for competitors,
how many days after official resignation were you allowed to stay?

Hi ,
I have an experience of 1.8yrs as a business analyst in wipro with 4lpa ,how much can I expect with an another company.

How do people make friends here? I have the ones i grew up with and a couple I made in the last couple of years (neighbors/through mutual friends) but I generally find that people here just stick with their social circles

It’s a little weird that the Effies have a Holding Company of the Year award isn’t it? Like, good job on restructuring distressed assets?

Best boutique design shops? Need to hire someone quickly for a 1-2 month branding project for a client. Any and all referrals appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

Can anyone please share the ideal/optimum salary for a HR Operations Specialist with 2.8 YOE?

What is the PTO carryover policy?

Need 11 💟 to unblock DM feature

Leaving consulting to follow my dreams, tired of pretending to enjoy this ish..

Austin copywriter wanted at Under Armour office downtown. Apply on their website. Please come help me! 🙏

How are you all feeling about these plans to add more bike lanes to the city? I'm all for it but I've seen a lot of small business owners acting like it's the end of the world.

Hi 🐠,

I have recently joined Infosys and they have put me in a project where I will be the only guy working in the team and the team lead is at the onsite location. Are such projects good? Because I haven’t worked like this anywhere before.

TIA :)

Thought we could use our own bowl...many of the FCB bowl posts refer to Chicago so thought we might like our own to chat all things FCBHealth, pharma, 7/6/5 floors, etc.

Does FCB have a company rate or company login for the Ad Age or Ad Week websites? Looking for ways to get discounts on accessing their content

So, how we all doing? First few weeks of 2020 treating everyone alright?

What’s the difference between FCB Health and, say, Area 23? Does 23 get ALL the awards and fame?

Serious question: Why’d we have to migrate our network logins to FCB Health in addition to our emails? Couldn’t we have just started listing our emails as “@fcbhealth” but logging in as “@FCB”?
Our old emails instantly forward to our current ones, so I don’t see why it couldn’t be the other way.

How's everyone feeling about the climate at FCB H these days? Good bad the same?

Does Partners & Pizza come with actual pizza (like a voucher or something) or is it just a name from pre-WFH?

Could someone tell me a bit about Yuzu Yellow or Mosaic? Thanks!

Heard there’s some funny business going on in the creative dept... can anyone confirm?

When are we betting the office will close for this Covid19 plague?

Michael Roth gave healthcare big recognition on today’s earnings call. 3%+ organic net revenue growth across IPG. 👏

How is it working on the FCB Health NY social strategy teams? Do you like your work/job? Do you feel supported?

I kind of think people should be asked to wait until after November 15 to share their promotion news until all the agency has been given their news. As a courtesy.

Hello FCB - I’ve made attempts to connect with HR for an open position and I get no response. True, I may not be right for the role. If that were the case wouldn’t I get the rejection form letter? I applied through a link an employee set up for me. Can anyone throw me a life line? tia...

Can anyone give me honest feedback on what being a copywriter is like at FCB Health NY? I have an interview but looking on here all I see is *really* negative feedback, so I’m very apprehensive. Glassdoor has a lot of bad reviews too. I’m currently at a smaller agency and I like it, but getting the itch to move up in salary & have more opportunities to produce good work. Tempted by FCB for those reasons, but value work/life balance.

Why are town Hall meetings so impersonal? They are all about awards / the number of people hired. I know FCB health is large, but we never hear from people who aren’t Executives. Last town hall, when discussing inclusion efforts, there were no people of color represented and one of the 4 pillars of diversity was centered around our “reputation as an organization” (that really rubbed me the wrong way). At my last agency those conversations were always led by people of color from every level.

Do we get bonuses this year ?

Did you have fun at the Halloween party?

How was Town Hall yesterday? Missed it
