[quote=Anonymous]I recently (voluntarily) left one of the large local consulting firms that had layoffs. Many of the ‘COVID hires’ - the new college graduates who came in after 2020 - did not know how to function in the workplace. Some were genuinely hard workers and wanted to do a good job, but needed more explicit laying out of basic expectations than I’m used to (for example, a crop top is inappropriate at a client site; being on TikTok during a meeting, regardless of what is being discussed or whether it applies to you, is unacceptable). Others were lazy AF, ‘worked from home’ but were impossible to reach, and acted like basic tasks like notetaking and scheduling meetings were beneath them. Guess which ones just got laid off for poor performance. I think it’s going to be a rude awakening. [/quote]
