Thread regarding Fidelity National Information Services Inc. layoffs

Age distinction in layoffs

Not really sure why, but did anyone else get one version of the layoff document to sign only to get another on the 9th? The latter added extensive language for preventing lawsuits, client interaction, bad-mouthing company, etc. What I would expect in this kind of doc, But it was what came after that I've never seen. It was a listing (not by name) but by position the people who were laid off and their Age. Not sure if they're daring someone to try and build a class action or bravado. Was I the only one who got the list? The way it breaks down:
Age Count
20-29 21
30-39 43
40-49 78
50-59 121
60-69 119
70-79 14

Listed another way
Those under 40 make up 16% of those laid off
40+ (a protected class) is at a whopping 84%

I don't know if it's enough for a suit, but it sure seems suspect in terms of their methodology in selecting individual.

It's because they are getting sued so they are now applying and fixing things with the WARN act. Lots of suits and losses incoming from all the previous terminations.

They keep a few elderly around to try and show that they aren't discriminating on age. FYI if they make you sign something saying it's not age discrimination.... it's probably age discrimination.

@OP I’m quite surprised there are so many people in their 70s working at FIS, presumably there are still more than the 14 who got RIFd.

@ar also adding that I’m unfortunately not surprised that you received this document late. When I was behind the scenes they were constantly making updates to this document and it often wasn’t finalized RIF-day

What do you think the average age of an fis employee is?

This document is an OWBPA notice. Since you received one, I’m guessing you’re over 40.
