Lol my office fired 2 partners recently. One of them is a senior equity partner too. Wonder what he did to get let go

Such BS... could you imagine working here your whole life and get fired at 57?

Most of the partners that I really liked working for left PwC. That is part of the reason I left as well.

Typical.

Slow sales maybe?

I wonder what happens to the people who were working under them? Do they get bad reviews because other people didn’t get the benefit of having their tasks being the first priority?

I started a full time in-house design job that pays extremely well. I barely have to work at all.

Or just chill out? I just feel very confused. Are a lot of full time jobs like this?

My work product is becoming worse and partners are noticing/commenting. I just hate the practice area so much that every time I am asked to do something I just get it done as quickly as possible and can’t be bothered to put in effort. I think I need to quit so I’m not fired for bad performance with a horrible reputation. Am I nuts and should I just wait til they let me go?

When you say your salary jumped __x, how is that exactly calculated?

Mine was $16k (minimum wage before joining corporate) > $40k (contractor total before getting laid off) > $150k (current FT)?

Is that a 260% jump or 2.6x from $16k to $40k?
And a 375% jump or 3.75x from $40k to $150k?

Or do I calculate it by hourly rate?
