Are they kicking out people because of free insulin tweet?

@lilly @Eli Lilly

I quit my previous job approximately 5-6 months ago due to toxic culture and being pressured to commit fraud… I fear hiring managers see that I’ve been out of work for this time and may assume I was fired or laid off. Additionally I’ve had a couple interviews where company “X” interviewers have commented on this and in an effort to not bad mouth my previous employer I’m stuck with a generic answer like I want to take my career to the next level with Company “X.” Any thoughts/advice?

I felt very good following Dana’s Town Hall. Having heard other networks are already facing furloughs and layoffs, did you feel as encouraged?

We use Deloitte India for a number of parts of our delivery. Recently I have seen some unethical practices that violate labor laws and do not align with Deloitte principles.

If I need Friday 4-5pm to go to a doctor's appointment, do I need to set a meeting invite to my manager in order not to be fired?

Most of my bowls are currently all about lay-offs and long times in between client projects, regardless of industry/function.

Looks like some bonus numbers are coming out for bankers, would appreciate any insights!

Anyone moved from NYC to Miami recently? I have moved over 2 months ago, still trying to adjust 🤔
