Anyone got an invite for Monday?

Looks like I'm out. Just receive an invite for Monday about "update on role".

When I was laid off there was no calendar invite or email. Just a call from the boss saying can you hold on I have to add someone to the call, then BAM he hit a car and hung up! An hour later he called with HR already on the phone. When they said I was laid off I put the phone on mute and did a happy yell and dance then unmuted my phone. I asked a couple of questions, I was ecstatic over the comp package, and that night packed my stuff to return to Dell although I had two weeks before my last day. Don't get me wrong, I like Dell and was proud to work there but it had gotten incredibly grinding and my work/life balance was cr-p. Loved my coworkers (we're all still friends), loved the company, loved the package, and I think highly of Michael Dell.

When i got "update on role" they moved me from DCSE to AE. When I got "business update" I got the layoff.

You may be safe (assuming you want to be)

Lucky you… When the got laid off, my director put, “catching up” in the calendar invite with only me and him in the list of attendees.

Then I saw HR join the call shortly… Knew what was going on instantly. It was not a simple, “catching up”.

Are u remote? And maybe your status is going to change to non-remote?
