Maybe they will fire some dots
@dz it would be nice if you elaborated
Bye bye plano
Scary working for a company that does layoffs every single year now
@c0 I do not anticipate any relocation. I usually rise at 5 a.m., but I was awake at 2 this morning. I cannot return to sleep given what is looming. The sole certainty is that no relocation is approaching us.
I’d love to hear how this plays out for the grandfathered employees that were allowed to keep their work from home work location, that are not near a headquarters. Curious if they will be forcing people to move and will they give relo? Explains why they cut back relo packages so much last year.
Ongoing layoffs. It’s the new norm. Nothing special. Carry on.
No note is being sent. Get into the office. You still need 14 days this month.
What if you’re already a WFH employee?
@b1 interesting. Also Plano, didn’t receive anything.
@bh
This is true. This happened to my team last year. We were told to work from home and had a teams meetings scheduled by HR. My boss knew nothing about my severance until I called him. We were shipped boxes with labels to return phone and laptops.
As someone whose role was eliminated last December, the entire department got a WFH email. It took place over zoom/teams with an SVP and HR rep. And yes, a box was shipped to my home to send my laptop back.
who is the email from? I mean, who is the "Sender"/"From"? One's manager?
@bf you’re not serious! Of course the are not sending a box and bubble wrap to your home
@be I mean I agree it’s a better way… but I wonder why they’re just now doing it this way if you’re right.
They will send an empty box (with bubble wrap) to your house to ship back your badge, laptop and Amex.
Remember, you are just a number.
@bb so the goal now is to lay off people while they’re staying at home? How do they plan on getting laptops back and stuff?
@b5 yes it is new
@aw is that new this go round? Previously our whole group regardless of effected or not would receive the WFH email.
only people who are affected will receive an email to WFH. sorry
@b1 what function? Plano here, nothing
Plano employee here - just got notified to WFH this week.
Notices only to affected groups. If you didn’t get one, you’re good
As a purchase employee, there has not been any notice sent out
@OP check your inbox tonight or tomorrow morning.
