Dang, I am so sorry! From strategy&? If so, you should get picked up quick. Let me know if you see a role at EYP I can refer to
Find it kind of hard to believe we’re laying of anyone in health right now… What did your RL say the reason was
To see how you were doing? Jesus your team sucks. Sorry to hear OP you’ll get through it
As someone at PwC consulting (not S&) this is interesting…
OP - in 2016 there was a stealth layoff at PwC at exactly this same timeframe. Were you low on utilization or a lower tier rating? A number of As and SAs were shown the door due to “not progressing as fast as peers” when it was really they were on the bench too long. Real issue was partners not selling enough work.
Just experienced the same at PwC

Can you clarify if you were laid off or fired? They're two very different things. If fired, you're separated for cause, e.g., performance. A layoff is an involuntary separation from work through no fault of your own, often initiated by the employer for economic reasons to cut costs.
Well performance is considered in layoffs too. High performers are rarely laid off. Especially if they are billing hours currently.
I get the sense from OP’s responses that they were specifically let go for some reason not known even to their manager. Doesn’t sound like S& is doing actual layoffs, or things would be made at least a bit clearer. (But please correct me if I’m wrong OP!)
This is a nice idea, but the majority of layoffs aren’t called layoffs. For a variety of reasons.
In healthcare never the less?! What happened? Anyway, you’ll find something. Federal health hiring a lot right now!
Deloitte and McKinsey. DM me if you need me help getting in contact with folks
I thought PwC only does layoffs after CRTs? Maybe I’m wrong
