Everything that I have looked at indicates that people over 50 were targeted for layoffs whether or not they were ready to retire. The specific group that I've reviewed had a career of 30+ years of service. The people were not complacent, had strong performance reviews, and we're not warned of their imminent layoff/forced retirement. The layoff process focused on COBRA without any mamMy question is . . . how was this respectful?

Shouldn't these folks have been "asked" to retire, provided time to box their own offices, asked to train their replacement or others?

What do you think? Were older, higher paid employees targeted?

I asked if they were talking about interns or permanent employees, and I was told permanent.

contract? employee? Best guess the finance staff are required to process the sale of additional assets and/or the sale of the company as a whole. The books must be in order to sell.
