So stressed, that I want to go to my manager and ask to be in next layoff if this is possible.

However, it will only make sense if the severance is good. To rest a bit, prep, and go back to the interviews.

Could someone share the light on the severance package? Thanks!

251 permanent layoffs at PayPal’s San Jose headquarters, filed with California employment regulators this week.
The WARN notice is advance notice: the 251 San Jose layoffs are scheduled to take effect Oct. 30, 2026, per the filing made this week. California’s WARN law requires 60 days’ notice before separation, so those employees are still on payroll until then.

San Jose's City Council has approved a $5.5 billion budget, successfully navigating a $50 million deficit without resorting to layoffs. The budget was balanced by utilizing reserve funds and implementing service reductions across various departments. Key programs, including immigrant defense services and a library historical document room, received restored or reallocated funding. Savings were also identified through reduced spending on homeless shelters following encampment clearings. Despite these measures, the budget still entails $18.9 million in cost and service level reductions, equivalent to 85 full-time roles, though these will be managed through vacancies and reassignments.
