I am fairly sure that I am being laid off with other Sr. Engineers tomorrow and need some ideas. Basically, I saw a calendar mistake by HR, so oops!

Meh. It’s gonna suck for a bit, but whatevers. Life is more important than a shit job. :)

    Advice I have heard is decline an exit interview, because those are for the company’s benefit and not yours.

        If you’re being laid off I don’t know if that works.

        It is my understanding that they’re going to try to get you to say something on the record or worse sign something they can deny your legal rights over.

            Just sign it and do it anyway. Teledyne for example wouldn’t pay me a package unless I agreed to never bash them on social media. Never for example call them a crooked tax dodge or worthless parasites that liquidate smaller firms. Or so incompetent I am almost convinced they might be a front of some foreign government to weaken the technology of the US as a whole.

          Ah… I did miss the part about the scenario being a layoff. I agree - Not that useful in that case.

          It depends on where you live. Where I live, if they get you to sign it on the spot it’s very likely unenforceable as you need time to have legal documents reviewed so you aren’t just blindly signing your rights away.
