Maybe I’m off base here but seems like EY kept a bunch of low performers through year end to justify keeping everyone’s pay stagnant for FY21 that will be around after these supposed layoffs, cause now they are canning a bunch of people and it’s not like things are any better now than they were in June...anyone disagree?

Yes very shady

Absolutely disagree - why would they want to keep low performers?

like

They’ll choose people who are below to average, not people who are outperforming everyone and probably already earning an above average salary prior to their next raise... which they will have earned... because they are higher performers. They need bodies in chairs to do menial tasks, and they need average productivity supervisors that they can also skimp on the raise to save money just to get through year end. Then they can basically cut a lot of those people and pick back up a few higher performers to drive up deliverables efficiency for busy season, providing their cash flow situation has improved.

I feel like you are right - from what I was hearing is some people were not what I would consider low performers or never on a PIP even.

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
