If one is told they have to move to Dallas or Atlanta… what is the normal time given to move in months?
If you say no, how much time until you’re off the payroll?
Probably every org is different but is there a general guideline?

I chose No in Aug 2023, was told my time would be sometime late spring for layoff. Got my letter in Jan and was off the books on Feb5
Haven’t heard of anyone being told to move to Atlanta. Heard of plenty having to move to Dallas even folks in Atlanta told to move to Dallas. They aren’t hiring in Atlanta
I was notified on 3/1 that I will have to move to my new designated city to keep my job. My director told me I will not be surplussed until after June. So. . Still here for now. Maybe they will fire me sometime in July.
I was in the first group to leave. I found out where I had to move at end of July ‘23. I had until Dec 31 to move. had 2 weeks to reply. I was given my term letter Sep 22nd and Oct 6th was my last day.
“Hurry up and move down there so you can be laid off in the next sweep there.”
Stop posting this nonsense right now. This hasn’t happened.
The letters I have seen give a 6 month window until you are off the books and 7 months to show up in the designated hub city. One caveat, the wording of the letter says that the "off the books date" could change.
Hurry up and move down there so you can be laid off in the next sweep there.
there is no general timeline
Why do you want to know?
The time to start moving your designation is NOW!
Nobody knows, it varies and even changes from what you may have been told I initially.
Check with your manager.
