What day of the week have you typically seen layoffs occur in consulting?

Just found out I got laid off. Cheers to the weekend 🍺

I'm Java full stack developer with 1 year 6 month experienced with Java Spring Boot Angular Postgres Camunda BPMN..

I can even work on just Frontend Angular

If there's any opening please let me know...

I was laid off last week

With so much uncertainty in the economy and waves of layoffs that have hit tech especially hard... do we think there's really such a thing as a recession-proof job anymore if you're not an "essential worker"?

Is it safe to join PWC india at this point of time. Are we expecting any layoffs?

Have an interview with a company I really want to work for tomorrow. My last job I was laid off b/c of an acquisition&recently accepted a job at a diff company b/c I couldnt afford not to. I got this invite shortly after. The place I’m interviewing at the job wouldn’t start til next year. I dont want to seem like a job hopper. Do i tell them I’m at a new role or just not bring it up? The acquisition was public so they can see Im no longer employed with the most recent work history on my resume

Does anyone have any advice on how to convince yourself life is worth it when you think it’s not. I’m a 28 year guy, just got laid off from my job, have aspergers, have no friends, can’t find a gf, why do I even try anymore at anything

Does anyone have any insights about the layoff rumors at Morgan Stanley?

Grey Merge with AKQA, VMLYR merges with Geometry. Are those „mergers” just the coverups for potential wave of layoffs?

Hey guys. I have a technical interview with AlixPartners restructuring and turnaround team. This is for their summer intern position. I didn’t come from a restructuring background. Does anyone have an idea of what might get asked in the interview? Is it going to be very restructuring specific or some general accounting/ finance/ operational sides of topics.

I had one of those VERY nonproductive days today. I think I accomplished maybe an hour of billable work, even though I had a bunch of stuff to do. I just came off a 300 hour month, and unexpectedly got a continuance on a deadline on Wednesday, and it’s like all of my motivation leeched out of me at once.

Anyone have advice for advancing in your current role? My co-worker was hired in at manager level but somehow “proved” he was actually doing director level work and got a title promotion and salary increase in less than a year. I also went above and beyond my job as well (covering for him for a month while he was away on paternity leave) while taking on other projects outside of my job title and got zip—no raise or recognition. Any advice would be appreciated!

AVICII is dead this is not a drill 😭😭😭😭😭

Cannot find a solid backpack (gotta lug 3 laptops) that looks professional and tough enough for frequent plane travel.

Does anyone have any recommendations for me?

Do you believe influencers have just as many efficient marketing skills as someone in the field?

Any Freemasons lurking around here!? Thinking about making a Bowl for my Traveling Brothers. Maybe to talk about how we view this unique Labor (consulting) in a Masonic context, post some inspirational messages, recommend good books, idk stuff like that...

Houston downtown JW vs Westin.. Thoughts?

What are some great books that you’ve received or been recommended by a rockstar manager? Something that actually had a tangible impact on your work habits, productivity and performance. If you’re a manager then what are some great books that you’ve given to your team members etc.?

J-dubs buckhead...anybody else??

Does anybody have good electric standing desk recommendations? Ideally in the $200-300 range.

With reference a previous post/comment, which industry would you choose if you are in Atlanta. Wanting to be industry aligned so I can skip or reduce travel. Thank you!

I have been tagged for this project that doesn’t start until June 10th. My utilization is going to drop significantly but at the same time the deployment team cannot present me elsewhere. Ugh!

A couple of team members have rephrased what I just said during meetings. What’s a good way to acknowledge it and ask them why they are repeating what I’ve just said?

Am looking at exit opportunities and researching FAANG. Curious to understand why anyone would join Amazon which has the worst benefit of the FAANG? Can anyone share what’s better at Amazon that I am not aware of? Amazon and Facebook on sites lined up in January! So researching now!;)

Any entrepreneurs out there that feel like there’s a million things no one told you before starting your company? (Good&Bad) 5 years in myself and nearly could write a book with my list of sh*t no one told me… curious to know what’s on your list???

View from the wing. I’m going to start taking photos and make a scrapbook for when these days are behind me. Just FYI, I guess.

So surprised how many people in my group are hardcore EDM fans. Whose your fave??

Hot take: high school was harder than college, thoughts?

Definitely not a fan of Westin's "Eat Well" proposition. I'm working in the room at 2:00 AM and the most appetizing menu item is a cold turkey avocado and arugula wrap. I just want a burger and fries!

Do any of the top consulting firms hire into the Engagement Manager level after an M7 (if they had manager experience elsewhere)? I know MBB probably doesn’t but what about other tier 2 firms after that - and asking for US or Canada

Best consulting firms to target for Supply Chain & Operations Strategy apart from MBB after graduating from MIT SCM

So apparently accenture is making people who are on the bench enroll into a mandatory customer service role even if you’re 100% utilized. Friend took 3 weeks of PTO and has been on the bench for a few days and he is being forced. Worst part? It’s Tues-Saturday.
