Hello Fishbowlers,

I was laid off at my company a couple of months ago and I could really use some referrals. I work in the Customer Success Space and recently built out the Customer Success Division. Would love a referral for a management role or at least Senior or Principal in the startup space. I've worked in startups for the last 5-6 years. I'm really feeling defeated within the job market. Message me if you have any leads. Thanks in advance!

I’m at an agency that just went through several rounds of layoffs. It often seems like staff have no recourse when the layoffs hit. How could a staff union assist in that situation?

Have I just had bad luck with the companies I've been at or is it like this everywhere? I've had 7 managers in my 4 years of experience, 3 in one year at my first position (which is why I left) and now 4 at the 2nd company in 3 years. There has been a mix of people leaving and people getting fired but the instability feels extreme.

How is the Accenture workday practice? I feel like I used to have a recruiter email me weekly to join pre-pandemic and it’s been silent since then. Did they have layoffs or just a hiring freeze, and can i expect them to start hiring again anytime soon?

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

I've been a top performer for years. Going the extra mile. Working nights and weekends.

And now I can't stand working past 5pm. And between 9-5 I can't focus on work either.

Things keep falling between the cracks and I'm honestly starting to hope that I just get fired soon.

I thought there was a pinned list of mental health professionals here. Both analysts and psychiatrists. If there is not one, care to start one? I need to start back after 10 years, and my favorites have retired. I'm thinking more Dominique Reymond from Irma Vep, and less Tina Fey from Kimmy Schmidt. Believes in meds as well as hypnosis. ADHD to sexual trauma. Do they exist?

I'm pretty good at budgeting - the one splurge I have is that as soon as I got my first job I lived alone which I find extremely peaceful. I've never had an excellent roommate situation and after 2 years living alone I'm not sure I'd be the best roommate either. The financial benefits would be that I'd save $300-$350/mo splitting costs. For those that have FIRE goals what has been your experience with living alone in your 20s and was it ultimately worth it for you?
