If you were going to be let go, would you prefer to be fired on Friday afternoon or Monday morning? I'm trying to make this process as painless as possible.

Have you ever seen a client fired in mid-production?

Just heard EY is about to make more layoffs in audit too

How is it that every company complains they can’t find workers yet 9/10 posts on linked in the last few weeks are all about layoffs? And just taking a look at the jobs in your are…why does every job suck and want to pay you 45k?

Looking for respectful ways to manage helping people in need of a job or seeking mentorship. I get 3-4 requests a week from mutual contacts asking if I can connect with a former colleague (always broad). Typically the ask is a 30-45 min call. I’ve been laid off, I know how hard a time it is, but equally am working long hours, parenting and want to reserve time for those I know. How do others manage these extra calls into their weeks?

I’ve been thinking about looking for a new job, but given everything going on with the Coronavirus and layoffs, it doesn’t seem like this is a good time to start looking. What do others think?

Tax Senior here. I’m well liked around the office, I put in the hours and work hard, I haven’t had any dumpster fire projects, but I am a mediocre performer compared to my peers (not as strong project management, communication, not as confident). I just got told they’re firing me. Should I expect severance? Have other people been fired for similar? What did you do with your career?

Review coming up. Is now an okay time to ask for a raise? Part of me is nervous if I get a raise I’ll be the first to go if layoffs happen with the way things are going right now

I was just laid off from a fintech startup after 4.5 months as their first ever IP attorney. Anyone have any leads on other IP roles. I’m soft IP/marketing focused but also have patent experience.

Hi all, I have offer from TCS, Tata Technologies, and capgemini, Tata Technologies and Capgemini offering same ctc, for tcs it is very less, considering layoff situations which should be the wise decision in terms of job security and wlb

I have a 25K loan from my MBA. I paid off 100k whole, after graduation. 3 years ago, I moved my loan from federal to private ( SOFI) account. I recently lost my job. I have applied for unemployment, as the severance that I received will only cover for 2 months. Together my husband and I used to make less than 250k after tax. Now, with a loss of pay , we are going to make less. Do you think I will be eligible for Loan forgiveness?

Morning! Being laid off sux, I been down this road 5x in my career it never bets easier.

Dust off contacts and make your rounds
* if you’re in a good position to take time off do some, seems we all need a mental break anyway

Anyone stealth layoff, stealth layoff? I heard stealthier layoff. They gave stealthed layoff stealth layoff. Stealth layoff stealth layoff.

Anyone in Toronto looking for a CD? I need to make a change. Agency or in-house (if the in-house is cool.)

For those of you without a home office: Where do you usually work? My desk is in my bedroom and I’m considering sacrificing aesthetic to move my set up elsewhere

Go on then. Guesses how long until Uncommon sell?

I just received a verbal offer as a program manager at vp level from a US BB in London. Unfortunately the number was a round down of my current pay. I’m currently a business manager in banking and thinking to move to the program manager role as a step towards more broader opportunities in the future (COO, consulting type of roles).
Should I accept the offer?
The HR told me that there will be opportunities for promotion in the next 12 to 24 months.

What is the level of senior control management specialist?. What does the career graph look like in terms of promotion?. Help please

Sucks to be on h1 b for two cycles of recession. Second cycle is particularly hard as now we are with families.

Today the cash register broke down while a customer was waiting with 4 pallets of Monster. He yelled at me.

I am thinking for asking around 10 lakh ctc 🤠
I have total 1.8 years of exp
6 months internship as a business functional analyst and 1.2 year of experience as a business systems analyst -- i got ECBA certified -- I am hunting for full time functional analyst jobs.
What ctc can I ask for ? Please provide your inputs.
Also do let me know which company is providing that ctc 🙃

Travel and TTC combo haven’t worked. After 6 months, the only offer I got included 4 weeks paid and FLMA only after 1 year. So 1) go and risk laughable benefits or 2) stay but risk TTC. So shitty 😭

Do you guys ever do message platforms / message maps? If so, how do you approach it? Is there a specific template you use?

I’m a copywriter and I’m shite at writing cover letters, which makes me feel like a fraud. Any other writers feel this way? Any advice?

First year staff and I think this job is making my depression come back. I find no meaning whatsoever in what I do and just want to cry every morning thinking of going to work.

Any dads out here? Wife is 20 weeks pregnant with our first and want to connect and know from fellow dads on how are they coping. How are you helping your partner? Feel I am not doing enough. Except for getting ready with the finances.

Pregnant moms, feel free to provide suggestions on what your partner is doing which you really appreciate. I got the foot massage part covered. 😉

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

Can we open New Salary bank account in Optum for lateral? Or its mandatory to provide last company's salary account details and continue with same bank?

Shoutout to account peeps ready to explain why, actually, it isn't that much work and, actually, EOD tomorrow is plenty of time.

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.

In person corporate financial analyst interview questions? Suggestions on what to bring?

Did anyone else receive an email saying a coworker invited you to join? I can’t seem to figure out who invited me.

Good exit opportunities from B4 for a tax senior? I cannot see myself doing this and want to get out before it’s too late. Thanks!

If you put in your 2-week notice and they cut you off that same day for going to a competitor, would you still get paid for the remaining 2 week period? (Assuming it's the start of the period)

Ugh got another “adequate contributor” review. Feedback says I have potential/good work-ethic but not a good of understanding of procedures and auditing. Been in PA for 6 months. How do I improve?

I literally almost threw my laptop. Didn't know I could be capable of such anger

Do all B4 firms match only 25% on our 401k contributions up to 6%?

When it's almost 5pm and you are finally able to start on the task you were supposed to spend most of the day on.

Jumped from public to a job in a place run by boomers but I just wanted out of public so I took the first offer that came to me. 5 months in and I realized it's not a good fit at all. Mainly the CFO thinks no one should be working from home, and working from anywhere but the office is considered a day off to him. Is this a good reason to apply for other jobs right now?

Where can I take Accounting ethics class online in CA?

I got laid off and not sure if I should find a place cheaper to live by myself and pay rent with UI for couple of months while studying or go back home where family is and contribute much less than I will be spending living alone to parents for rent. I will be saving a lot. Problem is younger sister who is mentally draining and steals my things, makes nasty comments towards me lives there and her bedroom will be right next to mine. She once got me arrested for no reason. What should I do?

Anyone know where I can get a free 4 hour ethics course for CPE? I'm no longer at EY

Team is already talking about eating hours. My utilization is down cause I was in unassigned for a month in Dec/Jan. What's worse pissing off the partner or having a low utilization? -staff 1

Does anyone ever use their overtime meal to buy something else when at Walmart or Supertarget?

Friendly reminder with flu season right around the corner: please cover your mouth or stay home!

What’s the sense of becoming a partner at a larger firm where you can’t even really make business decisions since there are so many partners higher than you? I’ve wanted start my own business since I was about 5 years old and can’t wrap my head around what the draw to partner is outside of the high pay. Any insight?

What are raise amounts or percentages per year?

Just heard EY is about to make more layoffs in audit too
