- seabird 5y agoIt can be done and it isn't hard for the company. I'm going to float a guess that you haven't experienced a mass layoff where they pop your coworkers one by one over the course of the workday. It's very painful and takes a very long time. Anybody who has been around for one would almost certainly take the mass layoff over 8+ hours of constant worry just to lose your job at the end anyway.
- cortesoft 5y agoI have been around for a number of mass layoffs, and you are right it sucked. It will always suck, there is no way around it. It doesn’t have to take all day. Managers meet with the people being laid off in the morning. If it is too large to do 1on1, you can do small meetings with a few people and their manager. Point is that it should come from your direct manager (or the closest direct manager in the chain if managers are also being laid off).
