Thread regarding Comcast layoffs

Will 2027 layoff rounds offer the same severance plan?

First of all - sorry to folks impacted this week, this post isn't meant to be insensitive to your loss of livelihood.

However the severance packages look really good! (16 weeks + n-3 plus 12/31 end date)

In fact it got me hoping to get "the call" tomorrow. I'm not married to this organization and can't imagine a bright future for this company competing against starlink and a bajillion streaming services all of which are operated better than nbc/peacock.

My question is will this severance policy continue into next year for Mar/June rumored rounds? Can it change?

How do you know they’ll extend into 2027

FWIW, the severance policy was first published in 2004, and amended in 2014. Whether it gets amended again anytime soon is anybody’s guess.

@OP
18 years = 48 weeks, that much I know.

I can’t imagine that when Comcast gets involved in a merger or an acquisition, the offer then will be better than it is today

I have been through this a couple of times in my 20+ years and the times I was presented them they have always been similar. Base amount of weeks based on Title/Salary then 1 week for every year after 3. I am sure it could always change but it has been consistent at least in the cases I have seen.

I also wish this round was voluntary similar to what Microsoft announced today
