Is it true BBDO had massive layoffs this week? If so, how big?

Need advice and pep talk because I’m certain I have chronic imposter syndrome :( Background on me, I have about 6 years of work experience post college but have gone through many companies because of layoffs and/or reorgs. With that, I’ve bounced a lot with different industries and have done different roles for a year max. My current role is about to be my longest (thank goodness, hitting about 2 years) but I feel like I’m not a SME in anything but I feel embarrassment for myself (Cont.)

Does anyone have any insight into the Layoffs from a SCNO perspective? (Numbers, duration, etc.)

I had a Big4 joke for you but the people who are really good at telling it are being laid off due to “performance” reasons. 🤭

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞

I got offer from IBM in my home location itself, with 18.5LPA fixed for 9 yea in automation testing. Here my manger is confusing me like layoff will after u join in IBM.. but I am in cts as 11.2 only .. but now I got SA promotion with 10 % hike .. and also no retnation for me also not there whether I can choose IBM or stay here .. kindly help guys .

So there's a lot of chitchat about people being fired/laid off for the wrong reasons but does anyone actually know of someone who got the boot for the right one? I figure that some of these separations must hold some validity

When the layoffs hit the BBbanks, where are the first cuts amongst IB, sell side research, buy side research, trading, sales, operations? Maybe rank starting with first out.

Losing two key accounts. Layoffs look pretty much inevitable. Any agencies hiring a Project Manager in the LA/OC area?

I am constantly terrified I am going to be fired. This anxiety is taking a toll on others and I want to see if anyone else thinks this way. Trying to calm down

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

Longshot post but does anyone have friends at City of Seattle, King County? Just recently got laid off by Accenture and I want to pivot towards work in the community, urban planning, etc. Really just want to do fulfilling work. Looking for a reference! 🙏

Industry vets - in your experience how recession proof is insurance? I was not yet in the job market last recession but I watched my mom get laid off and struggle to find employment during that time for the next 1.5 years. I was wanting to hit the job market towards the end of this year, but now I worry that if I do move companies, the recession could put me in position of last one hired first one fired. Is it better to stay put?

Stuck in a weird limbo where I want to leave my job more than anything but grateful that I have one at all with all the layoffs in our industry. It's a new kind of trapped. Anyone else feels the same?

The most interesting research topic you've come across....?

This is probably not the correct bowl to ask this question, so if anyone knows where I should post, let me know. I have a very old Steinway Upright that I’m trying to sell. How do I go about getting a quote and selling this? Do I contact Steinway? I’m assuming not many people are rushing to buy $20k+ pianos. It’s in ok condition, so I know it can’t fetch the $50k+ 😢.
