Need hard law for layoff just like United Kingdom. If you can't manage people efficiently then close your business

Prepare list: 1. Save 12 months of expenditure in FD. Based on the business or sector this can go high or low. 2. Pay off Debt as soon as possible. 3. Dont take new debt this year 2024 and 2025. 4. Keep your mental and physical health in check. 5. Buy health insurance from outside. 6. Buy term insurance from outside.

The irony is that the majority don't want to face the reality.

its my fear, so I'm ready anyday for this to happen

That's why I don't plan to marriage after my serious relationship of 4 years due to uncertainty in jobs that I may be terminated or some unnatural things occurs , so prepare for worst which is termination from company.

I have been a victim of mass lay off march 2023. Wanted to cross skill from Social specialist to ETL developer, invested six months in learning. Not a single company is looking for inexperienced guys in the skill i have learnt, min 6+ years they digest. The coach says you have to fake skill in your registered experience. I can't lie, i dont want to break 10 commandments 😢😢😢 So many unemployed guys in social Media and digital marketing roles , a plain application to an opening wont work. Fucking tired, rapido is taking off 50-60% earnings.

My suggestion is to quit this hopeless and unstable IT. Search for a business where you can make multiple times the money you get in IT.

Got to know today that I may be fired in 2 months. A foreign team is taking over our whole work and our GM has no option but to comply. Out of 8 members, 3 last hires are confirmed to go. I'm although the 4th last, yet I'm kind of stressed, let's see what happens..

Thanks for sharing insights in so much balanced way.

Wow, crisp and composed action items. Thanks! Keep them coming. Went through layoff / "Career Transition" in Jan 2024. I can relate and followed many of these points which you have mentioned. Though I missed/lack on personal health insurance. Learnt my lesson in a bit hard way.

IT is no more attractive early 2000s, we need all our learning and start new business with least investment

CAN'T MISS ANY VIDEO. Your video are too much informative. Appreciate your hard work ❤

Mam said right about the pre planning phase, if got just a single glimpse of being fired or terminated, be prepared is the right strategy

Over the years the IT industry has accumulated a lot of senior people from various domains. As a result they have to pay hefty salaries to these folks. When the times arent good, its the junior employees, project agents who get kicked out unfortunately

Thanks mam you keep us updated with all the good and bad situations in the IT industry and help to find a solution within possible time.

Excellent and Essential subject right now

Thank you dear much needed

Can you make a video on some hidden aspect of layoffs like when a company does layoff and make "excuses" on employee''s performance but actually its politics, cost cutting and few more that goes under the table we are not aware of ?

ur videos are always helpful, informative and well articulated.

All these jazzy companies, the salaries they pay are not permanent. I've seen many companies closing down in my lifetime. Earing should be based on our capabilities and skills not on these companies.

The last point you explained is so important Varsha. It is not like I did not know it, but coming from an HR really gives validation and assurance to people.

There is mass layoffs imminent in banking industry also.This AI will disrupt every sector of job market.

True, I have seen few dentists who quit in 2 years and became personality development coaches, skin and hair care department etc. some of the doctors moved to gov adminstrative jobs.

Also, this job wasn't my go to job after I graduated in 2021. I have been unable to pass my certification, which is very bizarre. I haven't been able to find another job since I haven't been happy at my present job. I'm good with this job, but the support was very scarce. No one wanted to help me when I had questions. And would make up unrealistic excuses why they didn't help me. They have also in the beginning stated, "We don't fire anyone" "You fire your self", so because I'm experiencing a very difficult time, I see there are situations that frustrate me more than others. I have made the mistake of telling my supervisor about my troubled moments, and after that I have experienced them more on the majority of my calls. I have been trying to find another job, but unable to.

layed off in May 2023, still not gettting placed. The situation is really difficult.

Yes, not all companies will welcome you, yes some might laugh at your face for asking that amount, but you continue your search and you will for sure find something you deserve.. just do not let those rejections affect your confidence..

Got laid off yesterday

I have been experiencing a very difficult time at work. I watched one of your videos, which identified a sweet trap. It is very similar. I WFH, ad I noticed that my system is not set up the way it was in the beginning. Although things do change, im not sure this is a typical change. The first situation was not getting the support, then being cheated out of my promotion. I have received it finally, but now my calls are very complex, test. Not authentic, getting calls from the same phone number, and only shows answered calls and not received calls. Not coming through the queue, coming directly to my number. How can I prove this?

Varsha, can you please share the list of companies majorly dealing with data science, AI , ML

Some companies are asking out sourced workers to make mandatory unpaid long leaves.

Just Do What You Like If corporate life is pathetic, insulting, and sick for you. We are not living for this society not for somebody

It's a needful video, I suffered a lot with situation like this after layed off in last year till Sept2023. Thanks a lot to you. I have seen lots of your videos recent times. One curiosity how could you say prepare for 8 months for such a situation because I was layed off last year and again joined a company exactly after 8 months, not a single day puls or minus. Anyways I liked your other videos those are really important for carreer growth and atleast for survival if one in an IT industry.

Thanks for sharing your story dear, I said 8 months because usually company's hiring process or the vision gets revised in 6 months and same for markets as well; then, even if someone is laid off in worst time(at the beginning of the market fall) 6 months+2 months(for interview process & joining) should be a doable timeframe to get another job.. though there is no hard and fast formula, just sharing what I have seen in my experience.. Glad you could find something good, all the very best!!

My brother was hired in amazon as sps position in march 28 (after giving assesment on dec 2023 and waiting for 2 month) he has previously worked in teleperformance in 2022 for 3 months. initially, HR told him that relieving letter is not required and he can produce supporting documents like offer letter, salary slip or F&F settlement doc. even while uploading doc for bgv in portal , chat support told him that relieving letter is not required. 15 april was his joining, and today hr asked him to show relieving letter or leave organisation. He is devastated and we all are really tense. My brother asked tp for relieving letter and they said it will take atleast 10 days to provide relieving letter. But HR uday kumar fired him stating that he donot have document. What to do now. who is at fault?

Great information but the audio echo is really bad, I had to stop half way to read the comments to get a summary of what the rest of the video said

Mam, how soon do you see these layoffs coming?

Can you please make a video on whether we need to quit job to switch job or we need find a new job while working. Some people say that there are chances are more of getting interview call when you are in notice period while some people say it's risky nowadays, please we wanted your view on this.

Dear, moonlighting is basically when you take up another full fledged job in parallel, company can't say "No passive income", most of us has investments, that's a passive income, some have rental income-that's a passive income... you get the idea.. As long as you are not using company's resources and information for your own advantage(to earn money) it doesn't matter what you do in your extra time.. its shouldn't conflict with the company's business that's all.. And if there is any company which strictly ties you by saying "do nothing at all", don't join them.. its not worth.. its a pure slavery in that case..
