Typically in a tech layoff you revoke all access, 2 months paid salary, and effectively say “your project is complete, termination date 2 months from now”.
That’s compliant and it happens all the time in CA.
You’re making the claim they are not compliant and you have none of the info needed to make that claim. (You’re the disinfo, bub)
Right. That’s why 2 months paid salary is standard. With any severance on top. I've had this done a few times and I've witnessed it a few times.
You guys were going around essentially saying "THEY ARE BREAKING THE LAW!!!" it's a no notice layoff!!!
And obviously there is no evidence for that.
They are basically about to do the layoff "notice", which will also involve telling these people to stop working immediately and turn in their assets. Telling them to stop working is totally in compliance.
I'll admit that I am not in HR. But, to be clear workers are still legally revoked all access and told to cease producing with no notice and that's fine.
Layoffs exactly like this take place all the time.
The context is if they are laying people off without giving 60 days, they are breaking the law. IDK what they are doing. But that is what people at Twitter are claiming (in some circumstances).
Which is how it should be IMO.
Anyway just google “ca at will employment” and you can learn about how you are wrong here.
Here’s an article that explains it in paragraph 2 https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/legal-and-compliance/...
I have been close to the counsel and HR during execution of several CA layoffs, within blocks of Twitter HQ :)
