Did anyone volunteer for leave of absence (loa) or partially loa? Would that bite you in the ass when being laid off in terms of unemployment benefits?

Yes because depending on the type of LOA your job may not be guaranteed and if you cannot find a role upon return it would count as a voluntary resignation. You can’t get unemployment if you resign.

TLDR: it pays to get laid off

Can your job be protected by layoffs if you are on Future Leave (3 months)?

Yes, returning from future leave doesn’t require you to have a project. You can come back and sit on the bench. Now if you don’t get staffed after 4/6/8 weeks back, you could get a warning and potentially be laid off, but you would be paid out and eligible for unemployment

Hi looking for some advice.

Currently have exit only options in the company I’m at, and have heard that we are close to being acquired by a faang that would make those worth £100k. Acquisition could be done within the year. Should I stick it out?

With Edelman’s announcement this week, BCW is now the only big agency that hasn’t announced layoffs. It’s scary that our leadership has had a similar narrative to Edelman over the last couple months. We implemented salary cuts early in the situation, but the question remains for a company 2 years out of a massive merger - were the salary cuts enough to hold us over?
