Why have layoffs occurred at firms such as RSM and not Big Four? Serious question.

Why is it recommended you give a company 2 weeks notice when you are leaving but at the same time, when they are laying you off/firing you, they typically do it on the spot. I have known countless people layed off/fired on the spot over the years (especially after busy season) and everyone else when they leave give 2 week notice. Why should we relinquish power to corporations? Corporations really don't care about us. They pretend they do.

Who will be the first big company to lay off?

Hi everyone! In addition to my consulting job, I’ve been editing resumes / cover letters on the side for years. I’ve been offering my services free of charge for those who have been laid off due to COVID—19, and have edited 350 resumes since the start of the pandemic. It’s been an awesome way to give back during this strange time. I’m now building a team to help me expand this initiative—if you’re interested, feel free to PM me!

Massive layoffs happened on Friday, and my CD was let go. He hired me, and we had a great work relationship. Today I just feel lost and weird. He won't be replaced because there's "no budget"...

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?

Any news on layoffs/recession in banking industry?

What are the safest (i.e. least likely to be laid off) legal jobs in a recession? Government? Biglaw?

Am I more or less likely to be laid off if the economy tanks even more if I just started as an analyst two months ago

When will the layoffs in consulting start? Wondering when they’ll hit hard and trying to mentally prepare myself 😢

Have you guys ever fired a client? If yes, then why?

I was recently laid off. I am an Underwriter in the mortgage industry. There are thousands of us that are unemployed right now. I am hearing that other industries won’t entertain former mortgage underwriters. I am not certain why. Insurance companies have posted jobs with the statement “no mortgage underwriters”. I only have 2 year experience so I feel like I am at the bottom of the totem pole compared to my competitors. Looking to maybe change industries. Does anyone have any advice?

Hi!!
I am looking for a referral for Marketing/Product management role, lost previous job in a layoff.
YOE: 2.5

When do I begin adjusting? It’s been 4 months. I joined as an associate and I feel like sometimes my work is sloppy or I’m overwhelmed. I’ve gotten feedback that I’m making progress but that sounds fake. I’ve also gotten feedback that my work is sometimes sloppy. The last report I helped write had a ton of write ups on it. Feels like I’m about to get fired.

First year in consulting out of undergrad at a T2 that does mostly CDDs. Want to break into product management. What kind of projects should I be trying to do (sector, type)? What kind of skills should I be learning in my free time?

What are people’s thoughts on cold emailing MDs or Group Heads of a group that is hiring/that you are really qualified for? I don’t know anyone at a few firms where I think I would be a really good fit that are hiring, is it worth a shot?

Are you typically the first to arrive at meetings? If so, where do you sit?

For those of you that were hired on to the big four not as right out of college / entry level folks , but seniors and above. How long did it take you to get up to speed and feel comfortable with the job ? I am going on three months in and I’d say I enjoy the work but I’m uncomfortable.

Have you ever had another attorney mark up your drafts to where the entire document is basically rewritten, and all of the changes were stylistic and not substantive? I am a third year. A 6th year attorney did this to me. It was a simple ancillary document of which I have drafted plenty of before. I almost want to bring it up to someone but I don’t want to seem whiny but I’m angry? This isn’t the first time Ive felt disrespected by this person and I don’t feel comfortable going to them directly

I’ve never been a stickler for color until I had to watch the Zola pre roll spots 100x over. Jesus- did no one notice the IG filter they used for color make everyone’s teeth yellow?

Anyone here belongs to a country club? How do you like it?

A friend is having work issues. He made a stupid comment that pissed off the wrong person. His boss told him to find something else at the company or elsewhere. Then today he was put on a PIP. What is the point of a PIP when you've already been told there is no saving the situation? Could it be related to the relocation benefit involved? If you are terminated after a PIP is that considered 'cause'?

If you’ve been silent or shrugged-shouldered in the face of the brutalization of Black bodies over the past 60+ years, kindly shut up when it comes to Black protest. “tHiS iZ hOw THe mESsaGe iZ LoSt” - nope, this is how the message is heard. You’re making a choice to not listen.

Any recommendations for a good wfh office chair? In between a gaming chair or ergonomic chair, I’m on the taller side. Have a $150 budget. Any help would be great!

Ask for PTO and potentially get it denied or call in sick?

Is there a motocross discussion here anywhere?

When will the layoffs in consulting start? Wondering when they’ll hit hard and trying to mentally prepare myself 😢

Starting to look for a part time nanny now we’re going back to office (3 days a week). Total newbs here and just starting the process. One potential nanny asked for PTO and vacation days (and being paid if we don’t need her one of the agreed upon days). This makes sense, but is this typical? I’m in LA.

Does anyone have a Wayfair code to share, please? Finally getting some furniture after all the pandemic craziness, WFH, and supply chain shortages. TIA!

Remember when this bowl primarily discussed work-life issues related to coronavirus?

How are teams handling PTO during this WFH life? Mine is supportive and encourages us to use it where needed. But I could see some teams rolling eyes when “there’s nothing else going on.” 2nd POV is 👎

Any tips for talking to family members who only watch Fox? Currently think all cities are in a constant state of riots, only about 20k people really have corona, and anyone who died was already dying from something else. SOS

Where to buy cute affordable work desk from? I am looking for white marble or graywash. Bonus if it has gold in it. It seems like Amazon is a bunch of scam.

English is my 2nd language so I'd appreciate your feedback on this. If I'm returning to office on Wednesday should I say "I'm out of office until Wednesday 5/27" or "out of office until Tuesday 5/26"?
