Last working day is 8/31. I've only been with the company since June. I'm receiving 5 weeks severance, they're covering regular insurance for September, and covering COBRA until 10/31.
Disappointed to be leaving, but for such a short time at 2U - that's a pretty generous severance package.
Question: What kind of fool organization would hire for a given department only to layoff said department members 3 months later?
Answer: The one and only 2u, Inc.
If that is not the most direct example of the Tom-foolery "leadership" that employees have had to endure for....forever, then I don't know what is!
Pathetic mockery of a business -- SHAM!!!
