Just got out of a meeting with a client. Talk about uncomfortable- they'd fired their director that morning and he ran in screaming at the team. They ended up calling security to kick him out!

My manager casually threw out that she had an exec tell her it’s fine if she wants to close my division down next year. We are a niche team in a large company. I asked her to clarify as I am worried about my team (and me) she said we would be “well taken care of” as in receive severance…she was so casual about it and said she didn’t know what she would do - we’re performing well, but it’s a small market. What do I do? Warn my team? Look for jobs? I have been here for 20 years w/niche skills…

WFH/Layoff/Security
Hi,
CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.

Client gifts: thoughts on gifting a great puzzle to a client? I have several clients where I know food/wine won't work due to dietary restrictions. Our family always does puzzles at the holidays and I know these contacts have kids that might enjoy the gift. Any other ideas welcome!

Who handled layoffs the best among BIG4? Let’s be honest. And who handled it the worst?

I have availability but want to set some boundaries. This partner always comes to me when they need non billable i.e pro bono or business development work done. I’m a non white female, if that matters. Am i being overly sensitive?

Agreed to serve as local counsel for another attorney in my firm (different office). Answered complaint and then the case fell off the rails. Turns out firm has a conflict of interest that was missed in initial check, client has been instructed to retain a new attorney, court has ordered us to withdraw and client to produce documents by Wednesday. I keep reaching out to the attorney who I am assisting to ask if I can file my withdrawal and for the name of the new attorney and nothing. (Cont.)

Hi all,
I need help, can anyone refer me to any MNC. I have 2 years of experience as a Business Development Analyst.
I’m looking for a job (immediate joiner) for the positions of BDA / Operations / Process / Consultant. Kindly comment.

I have about 1.5 years of progressive digital marketing experience, and prior to this, about 2 years of people management experience in a different industry. I’ve been offered a middle management position with company I’m currently at that requires me to manage 4 others below me, but is only offering a $5k salary increase - to $65k. Does that seem on the low end or is it valid? Any help is appreciated!
