I heard from a very reliable source that the IRIF planned for today was delayed two weeks—to Thursday Dec. 13. That is pretty much the last day it could be in order to get it into 2018 (since you get two weeks paid where you don’t have to come into work, followed by the 12 week lump sum severance check).
Bumping this from @WnfMsY4-1yzj for info.
Good luck to all next week as Xerox
crumbles!
Rumor is that the layoffs were moved from the 13th to the 10th, to ensure that more unwilling victims will be in the office.
Hell, I am ready to move on and get off this sinking ship. How do I sign up for the December IRIF?
I've seen similar things. I had a colleague get called at night at home, right while he was in thr middle of a call with FX. You don't have to be in the office. My manager is in another country. He certainly isn't going to fly here to terminate me.
Ha, I had a colleague who was abroad in vacation that HR tracked down and required that he had to join a conference call so that he could be terminated. It was done to make sure he was out the door the day in August that to severance plan changed.
What areas/job functions?
It's tough to do this late in the year when many people are gone for the rest of the year already.
