This quarantine is making me depressed in ways I’ve never experienced before. I feel like I don’t even care if I get fired, and I have to summon all my energy to complete the most basic tasks.

Hey guys, got laid off yesterday for economic reasons so currently looking for referrals in data analytics/data science positions. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Has anyone actually been fired from an agency position? Or has everyone been laid off due to $$?

anyone been able to negotiate additional severance from accenture?

Hi all! My company just laid off 5% of the workforce. I was safe but I am looking for new roles. I’m in final interviews for a company but worried about making moves because of the impending recession.. what are your thoughts? Make the move or stay put?

Meta/FB laid off 11000 employees. Linkedin is full of these posts. Very sad & shocking to see this! Tough times ahead.

Lots of farewell emails this week at PwC. People getting laid off? Has anyone heard anything about it?

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

Anyone know which company is looking to hire for cloud strategy? Might be getting laid off

Thoughts on google nest? How’s the culture, progression, performance, risk of layoffs?

Hi All,

I got an offer from IBM gurgaon, but the manager said the project will be assigned later when you join. What shall i conclude from this that they are hiring to manage resource pool?
If yes then what are the chances i will get assigned to a project.

Please provide your inputs.

P.S. : I have heard that they have frequent layoffs as well.

How many more layoffs at Razorfish? Looks like there are cuts virtually every month... doesn't look like sapient is doing that well either. Merger is going to be rocky..

The severance package at Meta for laid off employees almost makes it nice to be laid off depending on what your personal situation is….. personally wouldn’t mind getting 4+ months of full pay to reset and think about what’s next 😬

The sad irony of all the good people who tried to roll out a good product and now have been fired by the AI logic of that bastardized (Microsoft) product so that they can hire more offshore workers.

I was recently just laid off due to COVID, late in the game but saw it coming!
Looking for advice on how to make the best use of my time as I look for jobs and prepare myself for the uncertain time.

Offer help. I have 3 years in consulting and make 140k. I was laid off from ACN Strategy as an analyst and able to sell myself hard to another company. ACN wants me back, and will match my salary, but I am also getting offers from Firms for around 210 from different “boutique” consultancy and some T2.

Should I go back to ACN, make manager and look for an exit?

Should I join Deloitte Strategy as a SC make manager and exit?

Should I go to one of the boutique as a manager for 210 base?

We all have beautiful names and we should all be addressed by those names and the pronouns that we identify with. I particularly like Erik and you can refer to me as He/Him or They/Them.

At MNP, we foster an inclusive and safe environment for all to openly share their pronouns. We respect the pronouns that you choose to identify with.

What's the feel on SJCX - looks like a great idea of decentralized cloud offering

Thoughts on SPHR vs SPHRi? I have PHR currently. Current company is growing internationally so I'm debating which route to go.

Taking some golf lessons, got a women’s starter set I got to make sure I liked golf first. Instructor mentioned that the driver is like swinging a wet noodle for me lol and I should look into a men’s or one with stiffer flex. I have no idea what to look for. Are the people at Dicks Sporting Goods knowledgeable or worth driving the 40 min to PGA store?

How do you realize you’re stressed? How do you recognize the feeling of stress? How would you describe it?

Sometimes I don’t consciously recognize it, but when I’m truly stressed I start getting headaches that goes on for months.

I don't know what else to do. I have major depressive disorder. I've been on almost every medication made, been hospitalized, been through "therapy" with multiple therapists and social workers, and even had ECT, all to no avail. I'm trying to stay strong but it's getting hard.

I used to take propranolol 20mg few years ago and felt mostly fine. Only side effect I got was feeling a bit tired and groggy. I took 10mg today for an interview, and it used to help back in the day, but now I feel so spaced out. I feel dizzy and tired and like a headache is coming on. I’m on 150mg of Zoloft now which has helped with overall anxiety. Anyone else feel this way from propranolol? I feel like I’m better off without it for interviews.

I’m breaking. Each day is a marathon. I can’t afford to drop the ball on any of a million things. There’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Feeling stuck. How am I supposed to get up every day and do this all over again?

Advice needed: seeing a psychiatrist first time to assess if I need short term medical leave to deal with anxiety. How did you guys start the conversation with your psychiatrist? What’s the degree of depression that requires medical leave or medicine? Don’t want to make a fuss if my problem is “normal” but neither want to overlook it. I had panic attack before flying back from a case that I thought I was dying...

I'm decently successful, but sometimes I feel so jaded about life

Anyone come across someone so happy and your first emotion is jealousy? Blows my mind that some people are just happy and satisfied in life.

I’m depressed, anxious, unmotivated, uninterested, easily frustrated, dead inside, etc. i pretend to be the opposite of me during interview and got the job. I’m starting the new job soon, do I continue faking it? I usually work with people who needs you to be nice and warm and involved and conversational and I force myself to be that and got burned out every day and I would hate faking again in new job..

Fell into a deep depressive suicidal hole and missed work for two days. Honestly surprised I woke up the second missed day, took a bunch of pills. Now need to face family and work. Don’t know what to do next.
What do I even say to my manager? Do I just show up and not say anything? How will this hurt my career?
My family I know it would hurt but I can be honest there at least. Plan to speak to family once I can come to terms with being alive.

Feeling like shit today. Totally in need of some magic right now. 💔

How do doctors diagnose you with BPD or similar things? Do they observe you for a while, or interview your family and friends, or just talk to you?

23M here. Anybody have any tips or book recommendations on not feeling haunted by your past and anxiety about the future and consistently stay in a “FLOW STATE”.I’m currently reading the Power of Now. I have a habit of burning bridges because I feel that I’m perpetually trying to fit in and act “cool”. I feel that I’ve always been somewhat unconfident but every year it seems to be more and more difficult to manage and taxing emotionally. I go to the gym 4 times a week, try to eat clean, socializ

What “self help” books are you guys reading? I just read Untamed by Glennon Doyle and wow, I want to start from the beginning again, but feel like I should read something else. Would love any suggestions.
