I need help. I was recently laid off from Deloitte and was extremely blind sided by it. It has put me in a very bad position and need to find something. I am very lost at the moment. As a little background, I am in ITS, but also have domestic experience. Any input, advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

Firms in Florida are hiring. Got a great offer at a regional firm moving down end of month.

Where in Florida?

Which region? Did they lay you off due to performance issue? The market seems to rebound and you’d be able to find jobs soon. Update you resume/ take online courses to make you marketable. Best of luck OP!

If it was performance, it certainly was not communicated that it was. My scatterplots were fine and was even up for promotion. I think my schedule was just very light for summer and was targeted due to my pay as well. Thanks STA1.

OP which region ? I am in ITS as well with PwC.

I’ll PM you.

Do you want to stay in international tax? If so you should have no trouble finding a job. International tax professionals are in constant demand. Do you want to go to industry or stay in Public?

I would definitely love to stay in international tax. And open to either industry or public.

I heard that the tax lay-off was all done last week? Is that true?

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people.

I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.
