Just like the title says.
He loved his job and who he worked with. He got great reviews (4.3/5 avg) and he was well liked. So it’s easy to say this was a shock
He started his day like normal and then he got a meeting invite from HR and a manager. We convinced ourselves they were giving him a promotion. Nope.
They laid him off due to it being a “business decision”. Come to find out, no one knew these layoffs were happening, not even the managers. It was chaos; everyone was scared for their jobs all day. My husband even fought for his job back based on merit but the decision was made by a higher up who couldn’t care less. Can I also add the company is not hurting for money
This sucks for so many reasons:
- We just bought a house and interest rates are crazy
- We were literally a month away from me quitting my job so we can start a family
- Student loans are due again
- This is the biggest one for me; they destroyed my husbands confidence. He’ll never feel secure in a job again
It feels so infuriating that a few peoples pockets get stuffed at the expense of hardworking people and we can’t do anything about it. We just feel defeated
