The busy season is finally over, thank goodness! I was feeling relieved, but that relief lasted about five minutes here at my mid-size firm. The CEO just gave us a heads-up that things are looking rough economically, and it sounds like we need to brace for some potentially big layoffs. He was pretty direct about it, not just hinting around. Are any of you hearing similar news or feeling this kind of tension at your firms right now?

I’ve been having reoccurring nightmares about getting laid off :(

Should whoever came up with the hashtag BabyNut be fired?

Laid off at PwC. It was more of a relief than anything. Anyone have any knowledge on openings at smaller (but not necessarily boutique) firms? Human Capital / Change Management related field.

If I get laid off, I have a previous colleague that started a cybersecurity company. I would love to get involved on the business side of it. Any pointers on skills that are attractive in this realm for a startup? Would be mostly (if not all) federal defense contracting clients. I’m currently in Deloitte’s cyber risk practice but my background and passion is in accounting and finance, and business operations. Graduated in 2017 so still early career.

Took a role out of desperation and it was a big mistake. The firm was toxic and crazy revolving door. After only a few months I was fired "for cause" even though no cause was actually given. Is this the end of my career?

Not sure why the execs keep their jobs and layoff production. Do we need all top-level operation staff when there isn’t much left to operate? I have ahead time seeing C-suite doin any production work

I got laid off today 🥲 would appreciate anyone who can help refer UX or product designer roles. 🙏

Is it true that this time of year is the worst time to apply/ try to get jobs? Looking to pivot out of a contract I got after being laid off in August by 2023.

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.

I'm genuinely sorry to hear abt the layoffs at AirBnB and my heart goes out to your coworkers who are affected. How can a company approach restructuring in a way that is ethical?

Recently laid off and looking for recruiters that specialize in media/strategy/advertising (both agency and client side). Sure there are others looking as well - would greatly appreciate any info.

What if Elon Musk replaces Rajesh Gopinathan as the CEO of TCS?
All the useless managers will be fired?

Is it okay if I get fired from D after my H1B transfer for the new employer gets approved ?

Thoughts on Veteran status and the ongoing corporate layoffs?

My dad was recently laid off from his job as a derivatives trader in NYC. He’s been down in the dumps and interested in a new career. I’m trying to help as best I can. Any suggestions/ideas/leads?

Holy cow. Meta’s 11,000 layoffs today is insane. If we weren’t knee deep into a recession, we are now.

How difficult is it to get an onsite job with only 2 years of experience?

Hi All,

I have joined UST a Month ago and still waiting for a team alignment. Could some one tell me the alignment process.

A company didn’t follow through with a scheduled intro phone call. I emailed during the time scheduled to see if something had come up & after as well to reschedule. No one answered me or followed up. I can’t help but feel like this is a little red flag. If you can’t follow though on an intro call… what’s your HR & the rest of the company doing? 😬

Hi,
My current company is going out of business next week. I am rushing to get my next job lined up (probably won’t happen in time but I’m trying my best). My question is: should I be honest about why I’m looking for a new job? Is it wrong to not share this info during my interviews? Is this situation going to affect my interview process somehow? Please share your thoughts and wisdom! Thanks!

Hi Fishes, need your advise.
I got an offer of 9 LPA and my current CTC is 6.22LPA.
I am confused whether I accept the offer or reject it because now a days there is no calls for interviews.
Please help me.

Hi!

I recently did a job interview and I made it clear to the HR my expectation salary is 60k a year, non negotiable.
Today I got the job offer and they are offering me 54k. My current company is making me 50k with tons of benefits which is why I am asking for 60k.

Should I accept the offer or renegotiate?

🔥How you asked company-1 to beat the offer of company-2 offer ? Have you succeed? If not got same offer like company-2 from company-1 ?

Note - company-1 release 1st offer & company-2 released 2nd offer
I am expecting company-1 should Beat offer not to match the offer.

Your input please
