Do you feel the recession nerves at your firm?
V10 and during a large meeting had multiple anonymous questions about potential layoffs. People concerned elsewhere too?

Re: Do you feel the recession nerves at your firm?
Can confirm that similar questions were posed during a town hall at my firm, where mgmt clarified that no layoff/freeze is on the table. However, it seems like a matter of time as there has been zero real deal work on the horizon. IMO we will get some bounce Q4, but all depends on fed policies and if a real recession (ie, not just WST and SV) happens.

Re: Do you feel the recession nerves at your firm?
It is kind of a strange question to pose at a firm meeting. It's not like the firm would ever admit to planning layoffs..

I've heard at least two "We might all be working in bankruptcy in a few months!" jokes this since last week, but that's it.

Lateraled to the group 12 months ago. Was the nicest place on Earth back then. Now the labor market has loosened, all pretenses have been dropped and lots of a**holes showing their true colors.

The number of headhunter emails that continue to hit my inbox certainly wouldn't indicate that.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Oct 06, 2022 1:47 pmJob market suddenly feels tight - anyone else get the same feeling?
