Where are the layoffs?

Just trimming the fat

Which office?

They were in Texas.

I've heard in some cases they have more people than what they need. Some people get nice severances, time to look for another job, or still with the company just in another state or country.

Newsflash: we have a huge client base in Texas excluding oil and gas. Shocker I know.

Deloitte is having better retention than ever before and needs to have a certain percentage turnover for the business model to work. They needed to let go of people to reach that optimal percentage of people leaving. I asked our Dean at DU.

Also, they want to award top performers more

Miami let go low performers. As long as you perform (second year through manager) you should he fine.

This was after the initial round of low performance cuts so I'm inclined to agree with D3 .

Let’s talk about wrongful termination. The other day I was fired in the middle of the day without any warning. My colleagues called me because they were confused on why the Talent Manager dismissed me from the chat. I didn’t know what they were referring to. So I called my PM to ask what was happening, and she said that she just got off the phone with the TM and said they were terminating my contract on the spot due to me speaking up about micromanaging. No explanation just kicked out. Advice?
