Thread regarding General Motors layoffs

What to expect

In Cadillac building at Tech ctr., a manager comes to your desk, takes you to a conference room, then HR takes you back to your desk to pack up, say goodbye to coworkers if you want, and escorts you out. the long walk to and from conference room (which is on the other side of the building) was hard since you know what is going on.

Taken from here: @XsTc9Am-nuv. Should be on top for important info.

I was let go from Cad. My team used an elaborate ruse to make sure we were in the office. They sent out a meeting notice (paraphrasing) "2019 infrastructure planning." As if it was kind of a "your safe" meeting. I mean, why include me in 2019 planning if you are gonna walk me out?? About 5 min before the meeting, the meeting changed to Sunday. Yeah, Sunday?? Being skeptical(because I figured my Austin manager had chosen me since Dec), I didn't go to the room because the meeting went off my schedule. I figured screw it, they can come find me if the meeting was still on. Also, none of the people invited to the meeting were on Skype yet, 5 min before start. Anyhow, 30 min after the meeting was supposed to start, I looked at it. Everyone was on, so I walked down to the room. 2 people were in the room but not my manager. No one could find him. As I was sitting in there, I was making small talk with the two people in the room. A manager walks by and signals the guy I am siting next to to come out. He leaves. Since no one could find the manager that called the meeting, so I went out to make a phone call, in another room. 5 min later, the manager that called the meeting is standing at the window. I open the door and he says come with me. So far, 3 people on the meeting notice were let go, which included the guy I was sitting next to in the meeting. You should see this meeting notice. The people they invited, what it said, etc...just a ruse is all it was. Unprofessional candy a**es.
