2 questions the FAQ sheet to RIF'd employees doesn't address

  1. If you haven't submitted claims against all the flex dollars, deducted from your paycheck, by your termination date, are the unused deducted dollars refunded to you? (Conversely, if you were reimbursed for more than was yet deducted from your paycheck, do you have to pay it back?)

  2. When you're reimbursed for unused accrued vacation days in your final paycheck, does that include unused carryover days? If you were RIF'd in 1Q, it's quite possible you didn't use all carryover days yet. If you were RIF'd in NY in 1Q, your termination date is in 2Q. Workday drops carryover days after March 31. Your Workday balance as of the 2Q termination date does not reflect unused carryover days. If HR uses Workday to determine unused accrued vacation days as of termination date (or, if you meet rule of 60, as of December 31), then HR won't see the carryover balance.


Employment Separation Summary

On July 31, 2025, I was contacted by my manager’s manager via Microsoft Teams for a brief meeting late in the day. During that conversation, I was informed of a workforce reduction and the company followed its standard separation process. Immediately after the call, I returned my company laptop to a colleague and my system access was concluded.

On August 7, 2025, a representative from Human Resources formally reached out to review the details of the separation, benefits, and transition process.

My official last working day with the company was November 19, 2025.

On December 2, 2025, I received my final paycheck, which included payment for all accrued and unused vacation time.

Finally, on February 7, 2026, the company issued my severance payment in accordance with the separation agreement.


PTO Payoff after layoff

Laid off on the 12th. Had the normal two weeks of PTO replenish as of the first of the year. I was told my balance would be paid out. Checked account today and the balance was recalculated and now it's zero. I'm assuming that I won't get that paid out now? Or does that mean they've already taken it out because I'm getting my last payroll check next week?


Final 4 week severance check is less than my usual checks

Was part of the layoff and got the minimum 4 weeks severance. My final paycheck was today but it was a few hundred short than usual. With my understanding I thought 4 weeks severance meant 2 full pay periods.

Am I misunderstanding? This is how I had it in my notes:

Separation date is 11/12 and severance kicks in 11/13.

(I get early direct deposit 1 day early)

  • Paycheck 11/5/25 - for pay period 10/20 - 11/2
  • Paycheck 11/10/25 - for pay period 11/3 - 11/16, received this one early due final paycheck local regulations
  • Paycheck 12/3/25 - for pay period 11/17 - 11/30, first 2 weeks of severance
  • Paycheck 12/17/25 today - for pay period 12/1 - 12/14, last 2 weeks of severance

Severance Pay: Total vs Final - anyone know?

After reviewing my Severance agreement and release document that finally came into our portal, it shows your severance amount at the bottom of the document.

However, for me, when I compare this amount to the Severance calculation worksheet, it uses the same amount that is shown under "state mandated pay requirement" & "final pay." Instead of the pay shown in the "Total Severance Pay" line item. I am in NJ. For anyone else here, does your service release form also show this discrepancy?

Do we have any clarification as to why our severance is the lower of the two amounts shown in the calculation (which is exactly 50% of the amount)? I've sent a request for clarification to HR, though I have yet to hear back. Curious if anyone else sees this or knows why. Obviously, we would all want the higher amount, but it is confusing why they were showing us two different numbers, and then on our release, it is using the lower amount.


Last Day on Payroll ----- 11/6/2025 ----- Let's share memories

Hey folks. Today is a sad day for the employees who are leaving the greatest company in America. I wish you all the best, and I am sure it would be difficult to find another company as employee centric as ATT. Please continue to use ATT products and services as we need OUR stock to be in the high 80's (minimum). Love ya'll.


Termination agreement

Have any of the folks laid off on September 3rd and covered by WARN 60 days notification period received anything today? I have been checking my email and haven't seen anything (although the final payroll payment showed on my bank account this morning).
In any case, I really appreciate all folks that have contributed to this forum. It was the first hit that showed up when I searched after being laid off, and it made me realize I wasn't alone in this new journey. I really wish the very best to all of you.


Severance credited. Laptop not returned yet

US, separation date 9/22/25.

My severance pay got credited to my bank account yesterday. I haven't returned the laptop yet 😳 Anyone else get their pay?

Credited amount is ~25% less than severance amount mentioned in the separation agreement. I don't know the deductions, but I know payroll deductions & taxes would be deducted from it.

Last paper payslip I received is for the period ending on 9/5/25.

On Vacation when notified of layoff

Per policy I submitted my vacation hours prior to starting vacation and also to ensure I wouldn’t have a missing time card (and not get paid).
We couldn’t work from Sep 2 to Sep 22 due to loss of access. But they sure as heck still docked my vacation accrual for the days I pre-entered for post layoff days Arghh.
Kicking myself in the butt.


Final paycheck tomorrow

Some have asked when the final paycheck for those in the US on garden leave ending tomorrow (Monday) will be paid. My credit union website shows pending transactions with about 12 hours of anticipation, and it's currently showing two deposits tomorrow, 9/22, from O. One is the regular two week paycheck which would normally be paid on Thursday and the other is for the last day on Monday which would normally be part of the next pay cycle.
