No change of strategy explained. At least not SO

I heard it has to do with the new RPM system, it's easier for leadership to separate people who are doing worse and still slipping by with a 3 instead of a lower rating

I believe it is because overall consulting market is shrinking due to clients holding onto their money and deferring big projects. M&A space is ok as long as there are transactions.

@d4 some groups have...not sure if that's where the layoffs are happening though. My group is significantly above our stretch goal so I'm not close enough to the layoffs to know, this is only word on the street

@d3 what group

The federal practice switched to the new RPM system last year and used the plot in consensus meetings. Haven't heard of any layoffs in federal so it might not be related to RPM

I dont think it is RPM related

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

Has anyone been laid off from a Big Law firm and invited to apply back at a later date and actually got hired back.

Was she just being nice or do I actually have a shot?

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭

I just got laid off and I just don’t know what to say “if” I ever get an interview. Any tips would be appreciated. I know when you get laid off, no one wants to hire you.

What's the best course of action when you find yourself at a job that's far more chaotic than you assessed while interviewing? Upon starting this job a couple of weeks ago, I discovered between the time I interviewed and my start date they had hired a new CEO, laid off all of their off-shore teams, changed my position to a new hiring manager, and added an on-call rotation to all engineering teams. None of this showed up in my research of the company or my interviews.
