I heard that Starbucks is announcing more layoffs. Do you think they really need to lay people off or is this retaliation against all of those unionization efforts?

There are a ton of companies laying people off and AI is allowing fewer people to do more and more work. Especially and you move up through management.

A lot of companies have been closing their less profitable stores to focus on driving sales in the locations that are profitable.

they do those every 4-5 years. they evaluate where the profit is and where they can close stores that aren't benefitting financially. often times the employees are ok.

It’s so nice that every agency laying off people, have those left standing (and other agencies) trying to hustle jobs for their unemployed friends, but there are also a ton of people who were unemployed prior to Covid...so no severance, job hunting lot longer, and not earning income for longer time...hurting even MORE due to quarantine.

Having tough time deciding between IB & Consulting. My thought process: I have a "better" background for IB (TAS/valuation) and with tech layoffs, this might push more potential would-be tech applications to pursue consulting (there by increased competition)? Additionally, you can do IB intern and full time consulting but not vice versa. I prefer consulting, but IB seems like the "safer" option? And if consulting does get hit hard, I would hopefully have a full time IB offer via internship.
