I just want to shout out to my Deloitte brothers/sisters who were laid off without any explanation. Working with an ex Deloitter, he is very impressive, not sure why D laid him off.

Sincerely,
Ex- Deloitte

more layoffs at CPB today...

I saw that the Warner Bros. Discovery group has started with massive layoffs over at CNN. Is any job safe right now?

Novartis India recently fired 400 employees. I have read in an article. Is job security an issue at Novartis?

I've been at Apple for 6 months and I'm feeling crushed by imposter syndrome. No one has fired me yet but I feel like everyone is still holding my hand. But maybe that's just how the teams work here. I don't really know how to know if it's just me.

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being “unenthusiastic in our morning meeting”. Now I’m having anxiety searching for a job. I don’t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a “salesperson mentality”. I’m burnt out. Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?

Layoff List; Agency, Location, Departments, Number of Layoffs. Post Away.

Hi Fishes

Please advice
I am currently working in TCS (11LPA 10 years Exp)

I have 2 offers in hand. TechM with 19LPA & DXC with 25 LPA (23L + 2L Variable)

DXC hired me for Indian client .My job profile on system admin. Work will be on Legacy Technology. Do I get chance to upgrade to cloud and shift to different Client

Most of the review on DXC is negative. How will be job security and work life balance. In most review I see "termination & layoffs." How is current situation in 2022
Thanks!

Got laid off on July2, still no unemployment payments from NYS. Is everyone having that kind of delay? Impossible to get through to unemployment on the phone.

Those let go by Y&R/VMLY&R - did you get severance and how many months?

Has anyone here ever been on the receiving end of a PIP? Ie 30 day performance review? What was your experience during that window and leading up to (hopefully) quitting to take another job or getting fired? Do people just ride it out and accept their fate and interview their tails off? Would love to hear how they were treated, what mental toll it had, and how to accept you were getting fired before you got fired? And telling coworkers?

For the first time in my 3 years I have agreed to talk to a recruiter that reached out via LinkedIn regarding a similar opportunity in my city. Have never done this before. What kind of questions are appropriate for me to ask and what should I keep in mind during the conversation? With all the layoffs going on figured there is no harm in building relationships with recruiters.

Hi fishes,

Wow! What a day! What type of company starts layoffs right before the holidays? Lost my job this morning and I am stressed out. Is there any chance of finding a new job before the holidays? I'm doubting it.

So when should we start expecting layoffs in public accounting? Need to know how much money I can gamble with, while conservatively stashing away a few Benjamin’s for a rainy day.

Seating etiquette question:
I boarded a flight and when I got to my seat someone was in it and had fully unpacked into the seat. He wanted to sit next to the person adjacent to me.
He asked me to swap to a bulkhead seat and I declined.

I feel if he had waited until I got there, I would have been amenable. I was more stunned by the aggressive expectation that I would just move.

Was I wrong?

Been with a girl for few months, really enjoyed moments that we shared together and barely got into any fights. But, somehow somewhat, I don’t see that we share the same vision in our career path. She wants to settle for administration roles while I want work & travel to multiple countries, really hard for her to find those opportunities within her current roles. I like her personality a lot but I feel like really hard to share interesting topics/ my works with her. Any advice please?

Any information would be helpful, Thanks in advance...

looking into rolling old 401k into a Roth IRA. I just graduated from MBA and therefore have only worked a few months in 2022. Am I correct in thinking that the taxes I pay will be lower than if I did this in any other year where I worked the full year? Any other drawbacks or things to think about?

Best place to buy a good budget office chair that is fully returnable? I’m super picky and though lots of reviews online help, I know nothing will be better than sitting on it in person. However so so many of the top rated budget chairs are ship only and have restocking fees. Thoughts?
