If you are part of an involuntary reduction in force you can enroll in one of the ACA plans on healthcare.gov even if outside the normal enrollment period. I have been looking and some pretty good plans for a LOT less than COBRA is going to cost. Can... — read more 

Is the restructuring going to impact college hires ?

For new folks here, there is an "ACTIVE" button right above the first thread - you can use it to see what posts had recent replies. That's all from me. Anyhow, I hope this helps someone. Good luck all...

Two decades count for nothing... Escorted out like common criminal... I was naive enough to think I was safe...

My post is gone, who and why is deleting things? HR controls things here?

Please post your site/building. Other than that feel free to post anything else you want - how it went, income, level, age, or nothing at all.

For the ones who have been let go, how did it happen? Meeting invite? HR come to your desk?

Those who have been laid off, please post your story, your level, any severance details, etc.

So far, several of our best people were escorted out. WTF? Who is the id--t who decides who to lay off??? Does he uses a blindfold and a dart to make the final choice?

I got laid off today and you can elect to have health insurance coverage through your severance period, as another reply mentioned earlier. You get paid through Feb as if you were still working with all benefits. Very important info from another... — read more 

They have the third floor with Cone- DO NOT ENTER" Saw 5 people escorted out in last 20 min,

Additionally, do you have to pay back moving $$?

I haven't heard anything about the AIC seeing conference rooms blocked off or any signs of it happening this morning, has anyone seen anything?

My husband works at GM. I'm on pins and needles waiting to hear from him today to find out what's going on. My biggest worry is health care coverage. If he is laid off does that mean that coverage is also gone immediately? Or at the end of the month?... — read more 

i have said couple of times here that those who will be affected will get their bonus for 2018 and many of you were almost screaming against it (saying no way GM would pay this). But as we can see, those who are getting the axed have already... — read more 

Do we know yet what the average age of those who were laid off is? Is it leaning more towards the late-forties and up category or is it all over the place?

There is a possibility that this was was said before on this board at some point, but I just wanted to point out this to the affected people. We all take being laid off as a personal failure, and a natural reaction is to question ourselves which... — read more 

A good friend pointed out that you can cash in GM Achievers points for Amazon (and other) gift cards. Good idea to cash out those points just in case.

Got called into a video conference room on 3rd South @7:30 am. I was mentally prepared for this, and luckily have a couple of job interviews in the process, so I am in as best a position as I can be. It was rather formal, although the HR person... — read more

Post any news or updates that you may know. For everyone that is uneasy about the lay-off: You is kind. You is smart. You is important. This is all just a small part of the big plan we have set out for us.

No security or anything yet. Just a meeting and everyone is scared stiff.

From what I'm hearing, other places have significantly beefed up security for today, but I'm not seeing any changes here. Does this mean we are safe? Or am I getting too hopeful over nothing?

Confirmed it has started in WTC, Cadillac building. would not like to provide names atm.

Any updates? It seems like a regular morning to me..........

Email confirmed. Uneasiness and nervousness. No indication of anything yet @ VDOC It’s going to be difficult for everyone. Wishing all fellow employees a positive outcome.

Conference room booked, HR people here

The campus shuttles are all lined up outside building 22/23...even the bus is waiting

Just hit the IT e-mail list. It's on.

Security is everywhere, car services are lined up, HR is in the meeting to review the actions for the day. It's on.

Just saw a group of Metro Park cars come out of the grounds (overheard security saying they should have been a sign up to park by at Lundstrom House). Few other Metro Park already parked down there. Conference rooms in 24 saying do not enter.
