New management (US) decided to close down my innovative virtual firm. Last week I saw them post a position that was similar to the one that I was in. Difference is that in that position I would pay my own insurance and law society fees, and the kicker — the hourly rate is $35. I suspect that they are using the posting to “prove” that they need to offshore the work.
We were already making extensive use of AI and developing our own tools (dev team also laid off). Where is law going?

Got laid off on July2, still no unemployment payments from NYS. Is everyone having that kind of delay? Impossible to get through to unemployment on the phone.

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.
