OP- I would assume you first years r too low on the totem pole to experience a layoff. Even if you're not utilized, you should have been working on some PD / BD work internally to give yourself some saving grace

Will start eventually. And first years aren't safe

I am a first year and my utilization rate was 89%. I know others that were higher.

There are no mass layoffs. Chill.

Yes there are. Regards, a victim

Are you looking back and thinking about that industry job you passed on to join pwc

Pretty sure there will be another round of layoffs this Thursday/Friday. Wouldn't think many first year folks would be targeted unless you've had a bad snapshot.

When you say your salary jumped __x, how is that exactly calculated?

Mine was $16k (minimum wage before joining corporate) > $40k (contractor total before getting laid off) > $150k (current FT)?

Is that a 260% jump or 2.6x from $16k to $40k?
And a 375% jump or 3.75x from $40k to $150k?

Or do I calculate it by hourly rate?
