Thread regarding General Motors layoffs

Should we put all our personal staff in a box in case the sh*t hit the fan?

i was told if an employee is fired, the company will not allow you to go to your cube to pick up the stuff?

It's not difficult. Do you feel you provide an honest hard days work? You should be worried. It's only those that skate by, barely bringing their best, the corporation will keep. I say this jokingly, but at the end of the day, corporations typically keep aboard those least qualified to fill a role.

If you provide quality of any type, you should be on alert.

If that is true, you will experience the lifestyle of a contractor. They treat you like a 2nd class citizen while there, and a criminal when they walk you out the door. Work there long enough, and it's 100% probability in time, you will be walked out the door.

Cleared all the personal stuff before Christmas. Will do as the other poster said and walk in with a laptop and a mouse.

Take your stuff home. Bring it back if you survive.

If you are not allowed to get or are provided your property, that would be Theft. Act accordingly.

You will only get the bonus if you are still working on February 28. It's always been that way.

Our whole team was told in December that we are to have no personal items at our desks. Our manager told us to "be ready to walk out".

It's probably a good idea to start packing all the stuff at your desk, in case you do get let go monday.
