Thread regarding Paramount Global layoffs

Logic of 3 Year Skydance ban?

Can anyone explain how a 3 year ban on working for Skydance after a buyout serves the best interest of the company? It seems like they wouldn't offer you work unless they needed your skills. So why would they impose this ban?

@bb This makes the most sense. Thank you.

@a7 If that were the case, they wouldn’t put a 3 year limit on that. It is all about the $$$ - they don’t want people to collect a big payout and then hop back on the payroll.

So many employees on the production side came back months after their severance ended this year because they needed workers. The people who survived the layoffs obviously went and hired the people they knew when they needed contractors. Laid off full timers and rehired them as contractors.

And I think there were some instances of people who took the voluntary severance in part 1 RTO last year and then got hired back this year - defeating the purpose of it and costing the company lol

It makes sense. If you buyout you are saying you don’t want to work for sky. Sky doesn’t want people working for them who don’t want to work for them.
