What did you expect? It was a meeting to discuss the reason behind the layoffs. Hardly the most inspiring topic. Rory provided a clear rationale for the layoffs and laid out good reasons why current staffing levels are in line with market demand. The pipeline is uncertain owing to economic and market conditions. This means that obviously nobody is in a position to make confident statements about the trajectory of our projects and related staffing requirements in H2. Clients still like our work as reflected in our pricing power.

I’d blame the US MCs - not cutting underperforming/non-selling Directors and partners. And also bad business planning.
Easy to blame the company performance on “external factors”. I’d call it poorly covering up their own underperformance

You could easily argue that consulting staff did not get the chance to perform because of the government.. hence not their fault.

I don’t know about inspiration but I don’t think there was anything more, grounded in facts, that could be offered. Sounds like they had been too optimistic, semi on purpose, back in March, but have come to terms somewhat and were more moderate/conservative this round. I think that is somewhat comforting.

Hello! I joined a company in the UK 6 months ago, and received a £20,000 gross sign on bonus - clause associated to this however was that I stay for a minimum of 12 months. Unfortunately, the role is really proving to be the wrong fit, and I am looking to leave.

Question for you all - if I resign, I assume I would be expected to pay back the sign on bonus despite me only receiving approx 12k after tax. Anyone know the process for a tax clawback for something like this? Thanks in advance!

Hi folks,

If a person resigns on April month when yearly reviews are going to happen and bonus are being sent out.
So, can he get the performance bonus because he served the last whole year with dedication?

It would be helpful if managers can answer this because they are the people who approves or decline this request.

If you receive an RFE on the I485 while it has been pending for 180 days, does your new company attorney respond to the RFE? Assuming you switched companies after it has been pending for 180 days. Anyone experienced anything similar?

Interested in becoming a Google cloud product manager. Here are my observations on the experience you will need to be considered.

Here are my observations about the skills and experiences that PMs have and how people are joining that group.

They are all technical. All of them could easily be very technical cloud consultants or cloud engineers.
Tl/Dr. If you couldn't get hired as a cloud engineer or cloud consultant - you probably can't become a PM

Anyone at Altman Solon London who can provide total comp figures for Consultant, Senior Consultant and Engagement Manager levels?

Base/bonus breakdown would also be great. Currently at a T2 generalist firm and thinking of switching, but would be good to get a sense of comp progression (Glassdoor data seems incomplete)
