Thread regarding Paramount Global layoffs

For those affected

For those affected: your line manager will schedule a zoom meeting with you tomorrow morning, and will give you the news one-on-one in that call. There is a rough script they will have to follow. They will tell you about when your last day is (depends on WARN status, etc.), your STIP status (if any), and a little about your severance. They will answer any questions they are able. For any that they cannot, they will refer you to your HR rep. You will then get an email from HR almost immediately after you have had your call with your manager with further information and confirming everything you’ve discussed. Your manager is supposed to send out meeting invites first thing in your working day.

@aq I was a manager impacted in the Aug 2024 round. I knew it was coming, had my meeting with my manager and then HR. Then, I had meetings with the impacted members on my team. Fortunately I had a little notice and was able to give people a heads up a couple of days in advance so they could have their bearings during their HR discussions.

What if your manager is impacted? The head of our dept who has previously done these was let go. So now what? Who am I getting a call from.

Managers do not have severance details. HR handles.
