Thank you President Trump
Hello,
I have an accepted offer from Amazon with start date early next month. With the hiring freeze in place I am worried that layoffs will be next and new hires are more at risk when it comes to layoffs. This is making me wonder if it is good time to switch. Would really appreciate some input in this matter.

PWC1 which world you live and work in? Anyone from leadership who gives a shit knows who is leaving and who is going to leave in next 6 months.
Op there is no way for your superiors to know/check that you have setup LinkedIn to show open to opportunities. This is a feature that is only available to recruiters.
Also, most of people in PA know that usually people are in PA for short term ( 3 to 5 years) and will jump once a good opportunity presents itself. I would be surprised if someone from management thinks all these people who started are going to stay with firm. The survival of PA depends on only few people staying and majority leaving step by step. IMHO PA is a pyramid scheme.
PWC1 that’s what I said if anyone from management gave shit they would know. As for you saying total of 5 people left or got fired over the last 7 years does not make sense to me. Any big 4 office in a medium city would hire 70+ people in 7 years. Out of those 70, the 50 that joined in your first 5 years, at least 30 to 40 would have left by now. As I mention above PA is like a pyramid scheme for it to work properly a decent amount of people got to leave. I don’t want to be negative but this is hard truth which everyone who worked in PA for few years know.
You’re good <- speaking from experience
Recruiters have a feature in LI that alerts them to people who are showing signs of being interested in hanging jobs (i.e. interacting w other recruiters, etc).
Firms have recruiters too.
Our recruiting team often tells me who on our team is is on this list.
Just a thought. You may not care who knows, but don’t assume no one knows
you’re good
I’d be inclined to say to say they would be at least concerned, (for the sake of not saying “upset”). Because at the end of the day, that superior relies on you in some regard and there’s always that theoretical situation when an associate level person puts in their 2 weeks and the manager/SM/HR person asks what could have been different or if you ever mentioned anything. And it’s my very anecdotal evidence that people rarely voice the specific concern they have that is forcing them out (other than the day-to-day “we don’t make enough lol”).
That reply - not voicing a specific concern - is 99.9% because they don’t like to burn bridges...
I was literally told this by several senior and junior partners before I transferred offices as the answer that I should make sure to give.
Yea fired
Lol we can’t afford to fire you. Even if low performer, will get at least 3 months.
Yes no one has ever done that and left the firm. Pack your things
