If you work at a company that offers ESPP and you’re investing in meme stocks instead of maxing that out…
What does Github's severance look like? Also, has anyone received their layoff email yet? https://archive.ph/QDerR #layoffs
After AE Product and engineering would have deserved some
60 day pay as “severance” (aka WARN)
Really hoping someone is willing to share their severance package since apparently, we will never find out with their vague messaging.
The details were shared yesterday. It’s been bugging me nonstop because it is notably worse than Microsoft’s. Just looking at US employees GitHub LT decided to give only three months of COBRA where MSFT gave double the amount with six months. There is also no six months of vesting (only vesting during the WARN period). That itself is a huge part of the severance given how much stock is of overall compensation. How can they not match Microsoft’s package? It’s pretty bad since all the people in leadership who would directly make these decisions (Thomas - CEO, Dawn - HR, Chris - Finance, Shelley - Legal) are *Microsoft employees*. If they got laid off it would be with Microsoft’s much more generous package, not GitHub’s. Layoffs happen. It sucks. And no one thinks they can say no layoffs. But, how can they give a worse deal to Hubbers than they themselves would benefit from?

The only report on Blind is two months. They did not share severance pkg details in the announcement.
Do you know anyone affected? I'm pretty sure ours is coming next week, so just want an idea of what it'll look like.
