If you are terminated with severance, you never have to be on payroll at end of year. It simply is prorated. Getting terminated with warn on 2/31/27 not only gets you 100% of 2026 bonus but 1/12th of 2027. The other big advantage of a January date is that the severance will be paid in 2027 which could make your tax hit less depending on what your 2027 job situation eventually becomes..

At least you get the 2026 bonus in 2027 for being on payroll thru EOY, right ?

Make sure you go to the HR meeting and state rapid response meeting. First will fully explain how severance is paid out and when. Depending on your service time, some of it might fall under warn act payment and some under at&t severance and the payout dates are different for each. Latter meeting will explain unemployment benefit filing.

Unless its listed somewhere in at&t documentation/contract, its up to "what is considered reasonable" in NJ as to what constitutes a request to be in an office as relocation or not. And that's what determines whether its a resignation for refusal or a layoff for refusal.

@aq never said it was, just that they also triggered roll-off for those folks. Originally they had no known end date

“Some remaining on our team who declined RTO got their two week notice today.”

This wasn’t a layoff. These employees resigned.
