Layoffs in D Advisory coming soon. A partner asked me to get 40 hours from whichever sources I can for next 4-6 weeks

Anyone else using their layoff as an excuse to finally pursue a new career?

I recently got laid off because of some strategic decisions by executives which led to operation cease in my whole business unit. I've 3+ years of experience in Automation testing. I've experience in selenium, rest assured, docker, dialogflow, Jenkins, and few more as well. Please help me find a job.

How realistic is it to get a remote paralegal position with less than a year experience? I was just laid off from a small firm and loved the remote work environment…

Curious questions! What are the things offered by companies after laying off their employees? Do they pay 3 months severance? Or not?

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

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

A friend of mine from a top tier consulting firm was counseled out. Do you consider it ethical that his career counselor is intentially spreading the information to his colleagues and to other consultants from other companies in the project? What can he do about it? Specially that he considers the potential layoff is purely based on the current situation (chargeability was low) and not on his performance (they said that his contribution to BD during his bench time was low)?

Hi Fishes

Please advice
I am currently working in TCS (11LPA 10 years Exp)

I have 2 offers in hand. TechM with 19LPA & DXC with 25 LPA (23L + 2L Variable)

DXC hired me for Indian client .My job profile on system admin. Work will be on Legacy Technology. Do I get chance to upgrade to cloud and shift to different Client

Most of the review on DXC is negative. How will be job security and work life balance. In most review I see "termination & layoffs." How is current situation in 2022
Thanks!

Did Epsilon just go through a round of layoffs ?

I work on a consulting team at a large software company. I’m a job hopper, around 2 years each at my first and second jobs and a little over a year at this job. I recently found out they’re shutting my team down. We’re not fired, but they’re transferring us to the core implementation team, which has a horrible reputation for malignancy, overworking, and isn’t at all what I was hired to do. How hard is it going to be to for me to find a new job? Should I just stay and try things out? What next?

Should I negotiate a severance package even though it’s not in my contract and it’s not required by UK law?

I was recently laid off and I am actively search for a new role. I am mainly targeting ScrumMaster, Product Analyst, and Business Analyst jobs, but I am open to others.

Must be located in Austin, Texas or fully remote.

I was informed today that my employment would be terminated at a tier-2 consulting firm in Toronto. The reasons for my dismissal are unclear and I would like to get legal advice on the termination agreement and severance package that was offered.
