If I stopped working/responding as much as my computer does, I'd be fired

Anyone have experience with half of a CW/AD team getting laid off?

My company is getting acquired and I have a new job lined up. My current company informed me I have a job at the new company, but can I just ask for a severance package instead? I haven't put in my two week notice yet, since I won't start the new company until March.

I just got laid off about a month ago. It was the biggest blessing because the place was severely dysfunctional. I’ve been in tech for over 12 years and I was told how standard practices were wrong by my colleagues. I’ve been interviewing like crazy and I am getting traction with all of the FAANG companies. These are my dream jobs and I feel like I am getting close to receiving offers soon. They say success comes to those who have something to prove, and I have a LOT to prove to the haters!!

Layoffs yesterday 😭 We had a brutal round of layoffs before break too and we all thought we were safe for a while. I still have my job but the survivor’s guilt is real.

Are you getting fired if you get an email from leadership about low utilization?

Just was offered VP Implementations role at Citi in the ICG group, any insight or thoughts of probability for layoffs next year for a role like that? Even general thoughts of working in implementations are appreciated as well.

So an agency wins new biz and still has layoffs?

Hello all, It is quiet here.. how's everyone doing?
I hear layoff's and even our org did some realignment and let go of some people. Any stories to share here?

I've heard rumors of another round of layoffs to happen this Friday... Anybody else aware of this?

For all the people that don’t like your job, if you get laid off in the next 6-12 months will you stay within tax or try something completely different?

Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!

Are layoffs a thing now? Is the time of “The Great Resignation” and employees holding the cards over?

Got laid off a few months ago from big, global agency. Recently started at a small indie shop with lots of opportunity for growth. Sure, I miss the resources I had before, but this route actually feels so refreshing. Would love advice from folks who have been living the small shop life. Pros/cons/general tips?

Now is a great time to start your own tax firm even if it’s just friends and family.
1. Obtain PTIN if you don’t already
2. Register your firm with your State
3. Obtain your EFIN
4. Obtain an EIN
5. Get Drake Tax or whatever tax software you want
6. Get QuickBooks Online Accountant

I wouldn’t charge anything less than $500. I would only charge less if it helps you gain confidence or you just want to. Yes, I’m sure it’s against company policy but it’s your friends and family.

Been with my bf for 2.5 years. He is a great guy, kind, driven, charismatic. But as we have grown & encountered conflict I realize he really lacks depth, sympathy and emotional intelligence. I also realize we have some varying outlooks on life. It is so hard to end things bc of his great qualities and bc I’m scared I won’t find someone better suited to me. And because I love him so much and don’t want to lose him. I think we may just not be a good match. How do I get through this?

Does anyone have experience with reporting to an extreme (male) micromanager? It’s gotten to the point where we are having 4-5 1:1s per week. But he gives me a lot of positive feedback so I don’t think it is performance or trust-related. I am struggling with the best way to navigate the situation, and I’m worried about sharing the feedback with him directly as to not jeopardize my career, performance evaluation and/or our working relationship. Any advice would be so welcome!
