Its 1 week of severance for every year of employment, with a minimum of 4 weeks, up to 12 weeks for non director level and below.

Severance is based on how long the person has been employed with Belk.

Company culture is in the shi**er! First no bonus, then RTO, now layoffs. Going to be hard to recover from the hit it took

They need to get rid of those RVP’S while they’re at it!! Those VP’s need to start earning their money.

I know people who were laid off and they were Charlotte locals. So it’s not just those who had to choose Commuter or Relocate.

Going to be a skeleton crew at corporate come summer. I’m glad the New York office was cheap!

Yeah I think it’s fair to assume everyone that chose commuter is leaving the company. I guess paying for the flights is the equivalent to their severance

It's funny, bc most of the RTO people chose commuter benefits and the majority are looking for other jobs bc they don't want to move to CLT.

Not to mention the millions flying 100+ ppl in every week for half a year is gonna cost

Lots been hit, across all silos.
Business is bad and the RTO is incredibly expensive.
