Walked out upon submitting resignation?

I've heard of others leaving Global Tech to go work at another Bank or financial company and immediately having their access shut down while still getting paid out for their notice period. Does this always happen when you leave for another company? Or is it just another finance company? Does it matter how much notice you give, 3-4 weeks versus a standard 2 week notice? Am curious if anyone has experience with this.


Warn Notice - But not what you think

Apparently the company that runs Sidekicks Pub at the Bellevue office lost its contract with T-Mobile and announced a layoff, beginning 12/20.

I wonder if T-Mobile is closing Sidekicks permanently or just changing vendors...

Why do you care so much about layoffs?

Most of you seem to hate this place more than a healthy amount, and yet you are constantly worried about being cut. Why? Wouldn’t it be in your interest for State Farm to pay you to leave and find a place that would make you happier? It would certainly be good for your health to leave a place that is making you so angry and toxic.


Wishing for layoff

Honestly I'm so disgusted with my boss and this company, I would rather them lay off at this point. My boss is a real piece of work forcing me to make unobtainable goals. I hate her. I want out of this company and I want to be able to collect unemployment. I went on leave in part to get away from the dysfunction but also cause the depression caused by this job is just too much.

Sure, Jane

She is full of herself. This past year has been completely stressful for all of us. Our anxiety has been through the roof with this whole multi year restructuring. Each of us wondering if we will make it through the next round is not an ideal way to live. You say you are being transparent but you are not. I was impacted recently and I would say there hasn’t been support in finding other roles. The severance packages are also pretty horrible.
