Job security =being good at your job. If your good, then no worries.

^true. If you're very good at what you do, you're never getting laid of barring catastrophic circumstances. However, if you're in the average bucket, you are more susceptible to getting laid off. Good people get cut for budgetary reasons, extremely brilliant people do not unless the firm is also collapsing.

Why do people keep asking this? It depends on so many factors, including the pipeline of your service line which can change quarter to quarter.

D1 you said if you're good at your job you won't be laid off. Plenty of good employees get laid off. Yes the better you are the less likely you are of being laid off but it doesn't make you immune from a layoff

So many factors, no one can answer

And I'm asking as a whole if one is known for best or worst job security. If it completely depends on the service line and can't compare job security as a whole then say neither is best or worse.

Sc2 are you saying kpmg has the best or worst?

It's not that black and white but okay D1 lol

D1 is correct

Well high performers don't get laid off for budgetary reasons...

Strategy& has the best job security.

After 6 years as a community manager I feel exhausted. I've noticed my ideas are not innovative anymore. I'm tired of replying to the same inquiries over and over again. I even stopped using social media during my spare time because I can't handle it anymore.
I know burnout is a common thing and you'll tell me to stay away from social media for 5 days or something. But is this a feeling that will one day go away or is this just the end of my career as I know it?
