My termination date is 5 days before my vesting date. I want to request that my termination date be extended to cover the vesting date. Any suggestions on how to go about this?

Question to the people who got laid off , did you get paid?
Like the title suggests, have you received your paychecks for the previous and current month (February and March), including the VCP? Also, there is an additional severance package that is supposed to be paid as well, correct?
Layoff protocols
You’re informed by manager in 1:1 or a VP/Director in group con call
The manager/VP marks it complete in the APEX app
The system, slack & email deactivation kicks off by the APEX app.
You’ll receive an email at your personal Email with follow up
You’ll Docusign the termination contract to receive the severance.
Benefits terminate immediately. You’ll have the COBRA option to continue coverage later retroactively to the day after termination date.
Good luck
Layoffs - On Leave
How does it work for people on parental leave? Does that make you more or less likely to be on the list? If you're on the list, how is it handled?
Severance agreement vs rehire
I have received a severance agreement after my layoff from Citi. If I am offered a job at Citi in a different department but turn down the job, will I lose the severance?
I don't see this question addressed in the agreement.
voluntary severance packages
Any info on voluntary severance packages for employees over 50?
questions for those laid off...
Sorry if this has been answered in a previous post, and I've got a couple of questions that I hope someone can answer.
- So we work like normal for the final 90 days, in addition to the standard salary for these last three months, will we get severance on top of it? From what I'm seeing online, some people have said 2 weeks' pay for each year.
- What happens to all the PTO that we had planned out for the rest of the year after June 30th? Will we be paid out for those missed days, or should I cancel those and take them between now and June 30th?
Layoffs Scheduled for Late May and Early June

Could we get to a point where severance is not offered?
I learned recently severance was not legally mandated. I honestly thought it was, because, why would they pay us to leave if they didn't have to? So now I can't get that out of my head and wonder what if they really decide that severance is not something they want to bother with?
What exactly happens if a someone does not take the Voluntary Retirement Program? Laid off anyway?
This happened to my team mbr. IIRC he was in his 70s. During the final meeting, he said he enjoyed the work and he literally said he wanted to work longer, but he got the hint from the VRP.
What would have happened if he didn't take VRP? Laid off anyway the next round?

If I Leave, Does Quarterly Service Bonus Still Pay
If I make it to EOQ, I've done that quarters work. If I leave before the quaterly service bonus pays out end of April, do I still get that pay?
Has anyone who has been bagged out reached out to an attorney?
If it is true that people who decline the offer to move to the partner will not have an opportunity to collect severance package, how is this legal?? Has anyone reached put to an attorney? The handbook is very clear…you are not eligible for severance package if you decline a position WITHIN the company. The positions being offered are NOT within the company!
WARNING: Cognizant Bench Policy
Cognizant generally allows a 35-day bench period for employees to secure a project, often followed by a 6-10 day grace period or extension notices. Once bench time exceeds 45 days, employees enter a "risk zone" and may be asked to initiate voluntary resignation or face involuntary termination.
(Find work or leave without severance)
Check terms before signing any new contract.
Please be mindful of your rights
Do not disclose personal or medical issues to coworkers or managers—those conversations rarely lead to meaningful support and create unnecessary vulnerability.
I have been in managerial roles; I’ve seen more retaliation and mishandled situations than most people realize. This workplace has had more issues than any company I’ve previously worked for.HR is the most heartless part of this robot city. Do not go to them. If you’re dealing with medical leave, accommodations, or any health‑related matter, remember that HIPAA and privacy laws apply. If your information has been shared without your consent—whether by colleagues, HR, or health center—that can be a serious violation. Consult with an employment attorney. With proper documentation, many people discover they have a stronger case than they expected, and HR departments strongly prefer to avoid legal exposure.
Time to unionize
Well guys, should we consider unionizing now or wait until they either outsource all of our jobs to India or replace us with AI
DO NOT LET YOUR DEVICE GET LOCKED
After I was told that I was let go, my OT accounts got disabled in around two to two and half hrs. Since I had not locked my device or logged out, I could continue to access my local personal files and upload them to cloud storage. If you have any personal files in Core Share (due to Win 11 migration), upload those immediately as once the OT account is disabled, you can't access those files.
As soon as I locked my session, I could no longer access the laptop because my user profile was disabled, and only the OT Admin can access it now. So, DO NOT LET YOUR DEVICE GET LOCKED till you have all your personal files uploaded.
Severance - how long to receive payment?
Anyone have any experience with how long it’s taking to receive severance payment? I submitted mine electronically March 9th.
Age Discrimination
So they're trying to push out the "older" sales reps. How is this allowed?
At Will Employment
There’s this thing called “At Will Employment”. It’s an HR policy that is downplayed or not even mentioned. It’s standard across companies, especially for non-executives, like everyone on this site.
I recommend all Nike FTEs to get familiar with that policy. Just search the HR site. The sooner you accept that policy the better off your career will be.

Western Missouri area
In one region, they have laid off or fired BOAs 3x (that I know of ....there could be others) within the last year.
Pattern: All women over 50. All single wage earners, worked at EJ for several years and one was getting ready to retire in September. Told the news out of the blue on Zoom calls with Associate Relations.
Simply got rid of them to bring in younger inexperienced people.
If anyone else experiences this situation, call an attorney and the EEOC.
Start incorporating AI and it’s the start of your layoff
Isn’t it cool how the bank is training us in AI and encouraging us to try to automate some of our processes? No free lunches here. Every process you automate is one more step towards your own layoff. Even the things that aren’t successful highlight to the LLM what is important on the front line and what should get automated. Think you’re gonna get a nice bonus for alll that AI work you do? I have a Tuesday meeting set up for you. Don’t train your robot job destroyer .
What does severance look like?
If anyone is comfortable sharing details.
Help - what's with the Rule of 70
So, if a BOA meets the Rule of 70, but has just been terminated (to make way for a younger person), can they still keep their LLP?
Layoffs not stopping stock price slump
That’s probably not a good sign for those who would prefer to remain employed.
Severence - anyway to expedite?
Laid off 3/5/26. Electronically submitted severence paperwork the next day. People say it takes 2-3 pay periods until it’s paid out. Is there any way to expedite?
Asking as I might take another internal position (I’m in the hiring process). You forfeit severance if you are hired back on BEFORE your severence pays out.
Would like to get severence AND get back on since the job market is terrible where I live.
Any suggestions from this group?
Has anyone successfully negotiated severance pay?
Any tips? Do you just send an email to HR asking for more?
Severance agreement
How long are you given to sign the severance agreement ? One day? One week ? Other ?
Question Re Earned PTO if laid off or resign
I wanted to know if I lost my EARNED PTO (currently in bank) if I either resign or am laid off? I am plannning FMLA leave due to care for my spouse after surgery then I will be resigning and should have some PTO banked. Will I lose it or will it be paid out in final paycheck?
401k match
Public service announcement - if you were laid off in 2025, you should still receive the company 401k match. It was contributed to accounts on March 13, 2026. Check your 401k accounts to confirm. Also, if you were contributing to the Citi company stock fund through the 401k, you should still be able to vote for shareholder resolutions related to the annual stockholder meeting held during the 2nd quarter, so keep an eye out for that proxy communication.
Those who got impacted / laid off recently; were you able to negotiate the severance?
What was the packages/ offers you guys got? Just asking to see if its worth trying to negotiate/ how to negotiate
