Vendors coming soon. Stay tuned.
Ditto to the comment on knowing about the unemployment site for your state. What this company did to many two years ago can very easily happen again, and in greater numbers. Keep up with your contacts that have left for greener pastures. The more likely scenario however is what we have witnessed recently.
Workloads will continue to climb as the company bleeds talent. Little help will be on the way unfortunately. The company is counting on employees quitting so that they don’t have to pay severance. Good luck to all.
All very good advice. Also lessons I’ve learned from previous layoffs. We were told no layoffs anytime soon. But you know, the transparency s¥cks in this place. They’ve already started work to India and never told us.
*Bookmark the state unemployment office on your personal device - that way, if you need to apply, the info is there for you. Apply for unemployment asap. Don't wait. It takes weeks for processing.
*Get any personal info off your work device - keep work stuff on there only
*If you don't WFH, start taking personal stuff home that you don't need from day-to-day. Think family photos, decor, and such. You can do this slowly if you're worried about people noticing. Imagine a scenario when they walk you to your desk with a box and escort you out with security. It could happen, so make it as easy as possible in terms of logistics. You don't want to have to carry more than you need to.
*Email yourself to your personal device copies of your paystubs if you don't already have recent copies
*Get started on your resume, if you haven't already
Taking the steps above will help you if you get laid off
