Thread regarding Lowe's Cos. layoffs

This was avoidable for me!

Got laid off!

I'm a NS ASM who was supposed to get a package Fri. only for it to be cancelled Friday.

I have my mtg. tomorrow with the SM; so that's good. At least I'll know for sure what's going on.

The problem is I've only been there for 1.5 months. That won't be much of a severance!

My thought is that they KNEW this was the plan; so WHY did they offer me a job that was going away so soon?!!?

I left a job as a GM making more money for a career with Lowe's; so I'm hoping they do a great severance or I might actually think about suing them.

This was avoidable for me!

The severance policy was updated today - you can see exactly what you'll be offered. http://dxn1di0n80qyo.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/SeverancePayPlan2017Update.pdf

That's crazy that they would have hires people a few months ago. And they have known for 1.5 years this was coming. So I'm sure they knew months ago this was coming.

It's a shame you left a good job to be in this situation... I think u might have a case.
