If I got laid off, can my friends at other firms submit me for a referral bonus to be hired as an experienced associate/staff? Or is the entire point to poach from direct competitors?

Of course, yes. One of my friends got laid off from EY recently and he had a Deloitte interview lined up soon after, through a referral. Stay strong, OP! You'll get through this.

Sorry OP! Bonus aside, I'm sure folks here as well can refer you as well. I saw someone else create a dummy email id and share it here for others to contact them.

Why'd you get laid off if you mind sharing?

Agree with @A2

^ OP said "If"

Wait, OP, you did get laid off? Damn, sorry to hear that. I thought this was a hypothetical situation, my bad.

*edit* what part of FS? I was considering making a switch to one of those groups

@PwC 1 across levels and across practices. Primarily banking is the rumor but no one is safe. There are at least 10 different posts on fishbowl from the past couple weeks discussing this in detail if you're truly interested

@OP Thanks I'll check. I've been talking to a partner that pulled me to support a staff aug project, and this would be a bit of a plot twist

PwC 1 - if you are located in a top FS market, that could make sense. Though, I do know people who were cut from NYC.

Yea I'm NYC

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
