Why do they tell her it's for performance reasons when they could just say it's a layoff due to market conditions? That seems to be the crux of the issue here.

The rest of their communication was horrid as well.
- nindalf 3y agoThe obligations of the company are different if it’s for performance reasons. If it’s a layoff it’s a lot more. It also sends a negative signal about the company to customers and investors. The CEO commenting elsewhere implied they have a stack rank system where they let go of lower performers regularly.
- ndiddy 3y ago> It also sends a negative signal about the company to customers and investors. It seems like that's changed over the past few years. Whenever I see a company doing layoffs now, their stock price always gets a nice boost.
- reaperman 3y ago> implied they have a stack rank system where they let go of lower performers regularly. It's just absurd that the person would get zero feedback about their low rank performance before being summarily let go.
- rblatz 3y agoTerminating for non performance reasons can impact H1B employees, including renewals or new hires. There are also other reasons, but if at all possible a company would want to make any termination for performance if it has any case at all for it.
