PwC India Hi Folks, I left my stable job at Deloitte USI and moved to Germany for a better job. But my mom had a major health issue and I'm planning to travel back to India to support her as I'm a single child. I'm working in one of the top organisation in Germany with a base of 90k euro and looking for good opportunities in India.

How to overcome a breakup. I'm heartbroken 😭
Currently I'm in a depressed and indecisive state with very low confidence. My salary is very much below par with respect to my experience.
YoE : 4
CTC : 5.25 lpa
I'm not prepared to make a switch . Is it ethical to ask my manager to revise the CTC . If yes , how much can I ask . Need your valuable inputs 🙏

There’s a difference between being laid off and being fired.
The first is driven by business or strategic decisions, eg we are exiting this service or we are significantly under plan and don’t anticipate it to pick up.
The second is that specific individual being fired due to performance and non-compliance with policies or HR issues.
Ageism is also a factor as we all know. Replacing high comp with few low comp employees (early talent etc.). Was the colleague given any reason?
Layoffs are almost never about performance
Most HR organizations try to be as vague as possible as any provided reason can be debated and could be the subject of a lawsuit
Also many consulting companies(like other companies) are downsizing in anticipation of a recession / downturn which in itself may cause a downturn
