Dropped the ban hammer today. HR calls with the manager and immediate access loss. Laptop won’t boot. Only 8 weeks severance, no garden leave for H1 and an unapologetic CEO. #layoff

Did you move from Atlassian to Zuora? SWE?

RSU early? Do you lose access to company phone? Stay on payroll or cut and get severance by check?

Atlassian sansastrok OP Dec 5, 2022

Severance by check. All access gone.

Zuora pYhN38 Dec 8, 2022

Severance package is based on RSUs that would have vested for year end, tenure, and bonuses. They also said US employees get outplacement services for resume review/career counseling and insurance extensions.

“Only 8 weeks severance” lol you know most people just get fired without severance right

Most companies give 3 or 4 weeks.

There’s nothing about this. I worked there and none of my old connections are saying anything. Did it happen like 30 minutes ago?

Atlassian sansastrok OP Dec 5, 2022

Yes

Wish At.3 Dec 5, 2022

Why

Cruise cruiseOG Dec 5, 2022

There ain’t any public news about this.Is it still ongoing or completed.

Atlassian sansastrok OP Dec 5, 2022

Lousy comms. HR was uninformed too. I feel bad for them. I don’t think my team knows. I managed 4 people, and I had no info about this. I hope the junior folk are taken care of. Their careers can get ruined with this shit

Cruise cruiseOG Dec 5, 2022

Which divisions got hit ? Did it impact the sales and Presales as well or just the usual suspects of marketing and HR . It would be bad if it includes engineering as well.
