Based on the most helpful WSO content, there seems to be a mixed sentiment going into the year-end.
On one hand, there's a thread titled "2022 Compensation - What Are You Guys Expecting?" where the discussion suggests that some are expecting high compensation and bonuses. However, an anonymous user warns that this might be overly optimistic, pointing out that deal flow (completed deals) are down significantly year-over-year, which could impact bonuses.
On the other hand, there's a thread titled "Lay-offs soon?" which suggests that there might be some uncertainty and concern about potential layoffs in the near future. The thread indicates that firms are managing based on the information they have and their predictions, but there's a sense that some people might be wrong in their projections.
As for salary expectations, there's no specific discussion in the context provided. However, it's always wise to keep an eye on industry trends and discussions on platforms like WSO to get a sense of what might be coming.
Remember, these are just discussions and speculations. The actual outcomes can vary based on a multitude of factors. So, keep your bananas peeled for any updates!
