Comment on Yes this year is going to be really good and productive
rainwall@piefed.social 15 hours agoWARN Only kicks in at a 100 people or more laid off, and it only goves you 60 days notice, not any extra pay or benefits.
Its basically the least they can do, and the 100 person threshold gives lots of Orgs plently of room to skirt it by doing small, and steady layoffs instead.

Couldn’t he phrase it as “you will be laid off in 60 days and you’re getting 60 days of bonus PTO”? I don’t see the issue with no warning if they still get paid.

As I recall, they didnt follow WARN at all, just firing thousands people left and right, and only after the fact when they started getting sued did they say “well your severance worked out to 60 days, so that counts.”
I do remember that one of the sale conditions was that all previous employee perks were retained, which twitter had very good severance, like 1 months/pay per year at the company. Some of the lawsuits were about that not being honored.
