Surprised that some laid off CBDers haven’t found a lawyer yet to discuss certifying a class action law suit. You’ve been damaged and treated badly as a group.

In the US it’s called “employment at will” so they have no leg to stand on, unfortunately.
Now telling colleges to bar IBM from recruiting might have more of an impact.

I'll say one thing; after seeing how IBM fumbled things with CbD, I don't think I'd ever trust them enough to work for them. And the next time a recruiter contacts me about a position there, I'll say as much.

Ibm also just pushed back this fall’s start class to 2019... screwed a lot of college students who declined other interviews and offers. Unacceptable.

Can severance packages be negotiated? My role was eliminated in a restructuring and they’re offering six months severance. We were in the process of updating my job title to be more descriptive, which would make it much easier for me to get the next job. Do I try to see if they would update my title? (HR here is not easy to deal with.) Also, I heard that if you leave you can cash out PTO, but I don’t know if that’s true with a severance package. Appreciate an educated perspective. TIA

Has anyone taken part of the education reimbursement program? I’ve been here for 4 years and I’m thinking of obtaining my Master’s in Organizational Leadership, but I feel like with this merger, if I started the program and then there are layoffs or too many new hires, or work just becomes overwhelming, I wouldn’t be able to complete my program. I’m already wearing multiple hats when it comes to work. Does anyone have insight on how it works/what it’s like? Thanks in advance!

I was laid off fall of last year, allegedly due to covid. I just saw that they re-listed my position and now am devastated and doubting everything about my career. I got good reviews at this and my previous jobs but many are cowardly about giving honest feedback. I took a step down and started a new job recently so I’ll be ok in the long run but the job I was laid off from was my “dream job”. I don’t have strong family/friend support, exacerbated by covid isolation. Any wisdom/advice?
