Seems like a voluntarily retirement offer for older employees
- OsrsNeedsf2P 6mo agoI bet they spent a long time figuring out if it was age discrimination or not
- darth_avocado 6mo agoPeople who are 60 often get early retirement offers, don’t see this any different.
- rhyperior 6mo agoThey did not. They had already done this thinking with the 55/15 retirement option, where if you’re aged 55 or older and 15 years continuous service you could leave and keep most of your equity. And you signed a suite of “non” agreements including non-litigation.
- red-iron-pine 6mo agoany large firing / buyout / HR change will absolutely have HR + Legal thinking about it. probably doesn't need a "long time" just a week to check the regs and then to get an excel sheet together of ages + salaries
