Just got an email from a partner asking to discuss the results of my CRT in the office tomorrow. I have high utilization but that doesn't seem to mean much. Am I being laid off?

A lot of people I know have heard about things via phone call (including those at my level) from their RPs already. I'm hoping for the best but I'm a mess inside

@p1 oh gosh I really hope it's that!!!

OP , let us know what was the email about

.

Sometimes RPs use this time of year with CRT to have more "face time" because it's a structured opportunity to do so ... and a reminder. Hope it goes okay!

EY what?

Have you been fired before even starting your new job?

I signed for a new job two months ago and will start next month (3 mo notice period in Europe). They were very keen on getting me on-board ASAP before signing but since I signed the contract it has been silent from the new employee. I've emailed them with questions as I'll be re-locating to NL and it takes them 1-2 weeks to reply. Given all that's going on in the world, I'm worried they might fire me before I even start.

Alright fish, so I'm from a non-target school for consulting, for reference my school typically sends a couple to the Big 4 federal practices and FDD but definitely no MBB front office. Is there any way in hell I can break into some type of non-strategy role at a Big 4 firm with a B4 audit background and industry experience?
