With about 25k in emergency savings and monthly costs of 2.5k/month, I’m actually not too worried about potential layoff. Is this naive??? Or just privilege.

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people. Then a couple of typos in emails, the person micromanaging me told me to send out but I didn’t fix the errors. Failed to meet a deadline but completed 95%. I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.

Fishes need ur help...my friend s been laid off without notice...any quality analyst jobs please let me know....would be really grateful 2 u all...

If I just chill on the bench for long will I still only get fired at the end of the year?

Anyone dealt with age discrimination at work or thought they were fired because of it? I have a strong hunch I was let go because I'm older than most of the team and they're trying to get a "fresh perspective." To me it just sounds like they're firing anyone over 50.

Most staff/sr assoc would make 80% of salary for the next 4 months if fired & yet firms are considering pay cuts.

Like at this point just fire me idk what kool aid some of you are drinking

I have heard lay off happens in CitiusTech, is anyone aware about this

I seem to go through this cycle where I'll try to fix a problem, fix it and then go back to my old ways. I'm trying to fight against it but basically my performance review is coming up and I think it's likely I'm going to be let go because of my failure to meet expectations. Earlier in the year I was going through a rough time and working through it, I have gotten better over the course of the year but I feel it's not enough. I got fired from my last job. I'm so sick of this cycle

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Laid off back in Feb, Since then, decided that I won't be held ransom by the marketplace so i decided to start a consulting business. Sometimes challenges are opportunity #hanginthere

Does Globant terminates the employment of certain trainees after their probation(3 Months) based on their performance in the training period? Some of the fresher trainees were laid off this morning without giving a notice or reason.

We were told that the probation period is a training period & not an elimination one. It was shocking as a few of those trainees were actually good.

New here! Can you please like my post :)

This is an emotional dump rn. It may be lack of social interaction but I'm really frustrated lately. I feel like I lost last 2.5 years of my life with ongoing lockdowns and job instability in the first half of the pandemic. I was 28 turing 31. I get good dates but -ve self talk
Inflation is high & coming from a low income family where you're supposed to help your parents is driving me nuts. Although I make a good salary, after rent, car insurance, there isn't much left (unfav currency exchange)

Had a recruiter tell me that investment firms only give 24 hours for you to accept an offer - is this true? It seems crazy to me

Partner told me that they will give me an offer with Deloitte ARA. Does anyone have any experience with the group. Hours, type of assignments, travel, pay etc?

I feel like I lost most of my friends over the last couple of years. Everyone’s doing their own thing and now I see my closest friends a handful of times each year. Can anyone else relate?

Moving in 5-6 months..when do I give notice?
.
Decided to move out of state after this school year for my kids. I have a good job and a good boss. I don’t want to just drop a two weeks notice because relocating my whole family has obviously taken some time to plan. What’s a good way to be very professional and keep my work relationships in a good note.

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

Planning to do a PRM or FRM qual. How useful is it to move from Big 4 Risk and reg consulting to industry? Finding it hard to get anything other than non-PM roles

Do you guys have Any good books on business? Not those self help books

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

Have junior/mid-level (Manager and below) consultants at your firm escalated long working hours as a major issue in the last ~6months? Does your firm believe it is a legitimate issue? How is your firm winning and delivering solid client work while dealing with this issue?

Just started my 10 straight days of the “no pants dance”! Otherwise known as a remote week. Haven’t had one in a very long time.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

This is a really dumb question, but what does a headache feel like? How do I know if I have one? I have a weird head feeling, but wouldn’t describe it as achey, just annoying

I’m so bored during this pandemic, I’m starting to consider having kids at some point.

Why does my bed feel extra warm right now?

Good consulting books? Not talking case prep but a fun read about the industry and what it takes to succeed, etc. Thank you!

Anyone have sleep apnea? How do you deal on the road?

How do I find meaning in my life?

When people get extended a job offer, and their current company tries to keep them by matching the offer or other incentives, how does that work? Have they already signed with the other company and the current company is making the offers after you’ve turn in your notice?

Does Deloitte do welcome packages and, if yes, do they include a notebook? Asking for someone with an unhealthy obsession with paper products.

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.

Stupid question: do you get to alt-travel? Not fly home to your home office on the weekends, but use that budget to fly somewhere else?

Any good books recommendation on effective client communication/business writing?

Hi Everyone, I applied to 2 positions at Guidehouse back in June. 1 application says reviewed, the other Under Review. As of yet, I have not received any calls or emails regarding my application. How long does it take to receive a response? Could anyone help me in finding out the current status?
