Just heard from a former colleague that was laid off this past May that Deloitte is now hiring again and even talking to some folks that were let go. Why can't we plan appropriately?!

Hey D7, I have worked for some companies that always have planned better than this. The firms are not as smart as people think they are.

In other words, we were way over staffed just six months ago, but now we need to bring those people back?! Is there a partner here who can shed some light on what's going on?

This infuriates me. In June, advisory risk flew several hundred people to San Antonio for an unnecessary all hands. In November, they started laying people off. How are you so off mark in under a year when we're a federal heavy practice?!?!

I'd be very surprised at this. We're way behind plan.

I'm not surprised, I believe it and have seen the exact same thing several years ago. I'm no longer "impressed" by the firm; in many ways we're f'ing stupid as a company. Even sadder is many of us are smart enough to fix this and they won't listen. We just have to wait for leadership to get its act together (e.g. change hands to people more progressive).

@D7: Well, we just got a new CEO, so I guess we'll be waiting a while there.

You mean Engelbert, the one that's been there for a year?

Yeah, and Foutty for consulting. It's a 5 year tenure, right?

A1 - totally agree.

Anyone know what kind of experience or certifications I should be aiming to get if I'm trying to break into a pentest role?

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?
