It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

So someone I know asked HR about a boot policy. When he found out that there wasn’t one, but his boss said there was (who gave the guys $ for boots and the claimed it on his expense reimbursements as something else) the boss got mad at him for askingHR (and in trouble for the expense reimbursements) and then 2 days later laid off my friend. There appears to be no notice of bad performance and this person always was the first person on the job site ready to work. Thoughts?

So, lay off until the pandemic blows over.

Have an offer to start at Deloitte in July in Org Transformation consulting. If it doesn’t get pushed out because of the virus, is it a good time to switch firms in July? Concerned that layoffs may be imminent if I am so new to the firm. I will be coming in at the Consultant level if that matters.

Survived the layoffs on friday-but still shook up from seeing a bunch of my friends get walked out all around me. When a layoff happens should I be updating my resume/looking to get off the ship?

Worried about potential recession and layoffs...

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

Hi, I’m currently looking for a job as I was laid off during COVID. If anyone is hiring, please let me know!

What are some concrete reasons why someone in consulting would be fired, other than the obvious stupid things?

I’m quitting my job tomorrow morning. I don’t have a new job lined up. I’m scared, but also excited? I’ve felt under utilized for months, and haven’t had a promotion after two years. I never take risks like this, but life is too short. Is this a bad choice?

Throwing this out there. My company was recently acquired and I was laid off yesterday. I’m currently 6m pregnant so looking for a company that isn’t going to have a problem with my giving birth in 3m (looking for a miracle). 13 YOE in Marketing (Brand, Digital, Product, Ops). You name it, I’ve probably done it. Team management exp but not required in next role. Just looking for 100% remote, flexibility, and company that puts families first and won’t give me a hard time about doctor appts 🙏🏻

I have been interviewing for a new job but I keep hearing about layoffs and a recession coming. Is now a bad time to switch jobs?

Just got laid off today.... anyone hiring account executives? 3 years experience working across integrated campaigns in multiple industries. Hungry and eager to get back into the weeds!!

If you get laid off when you’re in the middle of an interview process elsewhere, do you tell the prospective employer?

Is it just me or do 90% of the jobs being laid off by big tech sound made up? Many job descriptions with multiple bullet points that all kinda revolve around the same idea. One of my buddies works for a big IT company and literally just sits on meetings all day. No one really contributing to anything other than agreeing to whatever the speaker is saying. Are these kind of jobs finally being exposed? Six figure employees getting paid to sit and bounce ideas off each other?

We use Deloitte India for a number of parts of our delivery. Recently I have seen some unethical practices that violate labor laws and do not align with Deloitte principles. My manager says it isn’t my problem as they are a vendor but I can’t help thinking I have an ethical responsibility to do something. Any advice as to how to approach this without being fired?

Deloitte US just announced layoffs. Any other B4 started layoffs too ?

Just got laid off but am holding onto God’s promise. Instead of wallowing and being bitter, I know I can trust Him to be faithful! God always has a plan and is always right on time. ✨

Should people be fired for lack of people skills?

Any Perth 🐠s? I’m supposed to go back to US next week but given all that’s happening over there, I’m wondering if I should delay going back.. I realize things will get bad here too though. Thoughts?

Do customer success roles get h1B sponsorship? Is that a rome aligned to strategy? Or operations?

Big law literally saved my life. I was working for the government and being sued by creditors and in a deep, dark place. I wasn't even able to afford my Ube transfer application on my own. I've been at my firm for 3 years now and my life has completely changed. I was so close to declaring bankruptcy it's not even funny. I understand why people rag on it but some of us would be in a really bad place if we weren't here

When are the layoffs going to start? Anybody care to wager a bet?

I'm thinking about starting with a new company. I'm a commercial workers compensation underwriter with almost 3 years of experience. I currently make around 38k but I'm hearing that this is low for the market. Thinking about going to Travlers or Hartford. Anyone have experience there? What was your salary?

Does anyone else think we should start investing in more light rail systems to cover some of the distribution problems we're having? I think it might be a good idea. Anyone have any thoughts about this?

Anyone in downtown bk or Williamsburg wants to join our board game group?

We are currently a group of 3, but one person is moving to west coast soon, which reduces our board game options and complexity!

We tend to hangout with limited groups of friends and meet up at least every other week. So ideally just want to find 1-2 more like-minded people to join us.

If you are interested, please leave a comment with what are your top 3 board games and a description of your personality :)

GS 2023 New Analyst Program. Is this a good program to apply for someone looking to start as an analyst? How easy is to get into this program or even GS overall? I have 1-2 years of experience and some Finra licenses if that can help me somehow. Looking for some opinions about the program. Thanks

Is this a good point?
When evaluating the IRR of a new project, the corporate tax rate falling from 35% to 20% really only helps by 1.5-2.5% points. Therefore, it won’t change inv decisions that much

Has anyone else turned down a tech job for banking? It was a hard decision but ultimately, I decided that the experience and training I'll get here is second to none. Hope I don't regret this decision

I'm thinking about starting something, but I want to be well versed in entrepreneurship before I do. Any recommended resources (websites, podcasts, books, etc.)? Thanks!

Popped a xanax before an interview, what a mistake that was. Sometimes, anxiety is good.

Please help. I am a top producing financial advisor (mostly insurance) and I hate my job. Im so sick of feeling like all I do is prospect for clients to sell whole life to. I have a series 7 & 66 and life and health. I just want to do something in the financial world. Whether that be actually advising clients, investment banking, or anything.

Blackrock. Got a informal offer but no follow-up with a contract. Noted they are working on it, but does it really take this long or red flags? How much longer would you wait?

IB Analyst, want to move banks. Searching via my contacts but want to expand my network with cold outreach. Should I reach out to MD's or VP/Directors?

Just curious, do any of you know which one pays better compensation/bonus has better trajectory, compliance/regulatory or risk management?

Leaving for a week vacation and feeling stressed about taking this much time off consecutively. Only in finance.

Do you have a plan of action if anyone on your team gets sick with covid19?

I was thinking that the rise of driverless cars could mean no more car chase movies. Robots not only taking our jobs but also our movie plots
