[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I started at a firm this spring, worked there for six months. I am pissed at how they did it and caught totally off guard. HR sent an invite for 9 AM with them and a principal at the firm, they jumped right in by saying “due to your performance issues the last few weeks, we’re letting you go.” I got a week’s additional pay. There was ZERO indication of performance issues. I feel gaslit - everything was on track, I did good work, never missed a deadline, was on good terms with people. I know they’re doing it for financial reasons - they’ve vastly missed their financial goals for the year and just yesterday during an account meeting they re-emphasized the firm’s financial precariousness. Why fired instead of laid off? How long have my project leads known? Everything seemed fine. I turn forty in a month and feel like a failure and a loser. [/quote] OP, you aren’t a loser. There are no losers on DCUM. Only winners.[/quote]
