Any idea what the package is going to look like? Is it just 2 months plus 1 year accelerated vesting? How about our ESPP that was suppose to come on May 31st?

Can anyone invited to meeting with management on 29th also confirm receiving T. Rowe Price email? I have no meeting invite but the T Rowe Price email.

The T. Rowe Price email was sent to all employees participating in the 401k. It's letting you know how to roll over your 401k. Bad timing on T. Rowe Price's part. Employees are starting to get notifications to meet with management next week. HR has booked 2 conference rooms at the Junction Ave site all day on Mar. 29. So long DCS, it was nice knowing you.

Flashsoft team is getting killed off next week. Projects are being scoped to start at the beginning of Q2 so no way they're waiting to lay off people then.

I'm not surprised that the layoff date is now rumored to be Mar. 23rd/24th. The IT Dept at HGST is very, very slow. Everytime I put in an urgent work order request, it takes IT forever to respond. Like everyone else at HGST/WD, I'm just waiting.
