I am fairly sure that I am being laid off with other Sr. Engineers tomorrow and need some ideas. Basically, I saw a calendar mistake by HR, so oops!

Meh. It's gonna suck for a bit, but whatevers. Life is more important than a shit job. :)

Don’t go? I mean, you’re being fired, what’s the worst that can happen so just don’t go. Go for a walk in the woods or mountains while the company is paying you…

The worst that can happen is that your severance package is dependent on attending the exit interview.

Is that legally allowed. Reminds me of that NFL video of get saying “I’m only here so I get fined” https://youtu.be/rmABbHSOTqQ?si=7GseAxob1CPn2d5P

There is no requirement to provide severance at all in the US.

[–] Silentiea@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Unless it's in the contract in which case it depends on the contract

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And how many people have actual contracts? And no, your offer letter is not a contract.

[–] Silentiea@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 months ago

Pretty sure all of my jobs that I specifically remember the paperwork for involved contacts. Incredibly one-sided contacts that I had no control over, but

[–] TBi@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Bit of you have severence in your contract can they restrict it to going to exit interview?
