Anyone else just waiting for impending layoffs or are we at the end of the recent wave?

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! 🙏

Got laid off today at deloitte. Is anyone hiring

Do consulting firms ever do mass layoffs right before they pay out bonuses in order to avoid paying them out? Is this a common procedure?

To those who have switched over to freelance: how do you find jobs?

For context, I got laid off recently and it’s been hard to find full time opportunities. I’m also on the lookout for freelance gigs to keep me afloat. I’d appreciate any advice or guidance! 🙏

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

Is job changing a good idea at this time? Considering recession, mass layoffs.

Has anyone working tech for a bank been laid off yet? Tech layoffs all over the media but no one is talking about developers at banks (who make up 1/3 of headcount in some cases)

Has anyone been fired and then subsequently received unemployment? I was let go this week and am wondering if that is realistic to expect. Thanks!

Has anyone seen firing in Deloitte India? Is there any process or employees are fired directly like few companies?

Hi,
CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.
Is it worth looking for another opportunity?

The annual Leo Burnett Cannes 'predictions' is a joke. It's obvious what will win based on past award shows. It's like me predicting that tomorrow will be a Friday.

Things have been super stressful at work lately for a variety of reasons & a couple of weeks ago I decided to raise the issues with my Creative Director.
For context, he’s the reason for a lot of these problems and I (tactfully, I think) said as much. He listened to me patiently but took no responsibility and deflected blame with every issue raised.
Today he asked me to send an email to him about how overworked I am so that he can use it to talk to management. (cont. in comments)

If you’re at a small creative agency that mostly does project work, does that mean you’re perpetually pitching?

Without asking or confirming, account lead booked an in-person client meeting that requires travel. Who books ~any~ major client meeting without first checking with the team ?

Anyone know anything about the people, work, or culture of R/GA Tokyo?

When an agency is about to hire you as a creative lead but without seeing your book to find out what you had done in your career, is that a red flag to you as a creative?
