Talked to several across teams.
Most of us are wishing for a layoff and severance at this point.

To the last post. If you are quickly offered another position, yes, you can negotiate your new salary. No, you do not get to keep severance. They will pro-rate and you have to PAY back the difference. For example, you receive 4 months severance but start your new job after 1 month, you have to pay back 3 months of severance. You will have a new adjusted hire date of your original date less one month. They will bridge any earned vacation. This will happen if you are rehired within a year. After 1 year of being gone, your seniority and vacation accruals start over.
What if you are fired and they offer you suddenly another role?
Can you then negotiate a new salary and keep the severance package they planned to give you?
Take the money and run. And do not speak about them or it, don't waste your time and don't breach confidentiality. Consider it as a lucky escape
@cvh+1r5RscHB, it will be written in the agreement you sign, will be different depending on where you are located.
If I do get lucky and get a package, I know I have to sign something. How long would I have to keep my mouth shut, could I speak up after the severance runs out, or is there a time limit that goes beyond the severance. What can they do to me, is it worth their bringing a lawsuit?
cut me a check, I'm ready.
you have a few knobs to polish behind the conference room. Just think of the year end 3% you will get
