If true, how is it a surprise? Holding Co’s are doing everything possible to maintain EOY C-suite bonuses and maintain profit margins for shareholders.

Every holding co has been doing it. IPG alone has had how many rounds across consumer and pharma since last year? Twelve?

Brace for more to come, end of November through Mid-January.

Thank you. Fingers crossed we can ride out this storm. My main priority is protecting my team through high utilization. But putting myself at risk as a result 🙃.

The Current scenario of high attrition rates and job shift by taking multiple offers has been caused by a resource crunch in the market. However I have a feeling that this particular scenario of shifting jobs by way of multiple offers and getting high salary is creating a bubble in the market which will burst causing a ripple effect of lay offs due to cost saving efforts by organisations in the near future. In a scenario like this how can one change the job by avoiding the bubble?

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
