As a person whonwas part of the Augusty wave of layoffs, here is how PTO was treated....
You will be allowed to take any PTO that was already approved prior to layoff and will be up to your people leaders discretion and business needs if they approve any remaining PTO you have left.
You will be directed to a department that handles severance agreements and not the regular HR Department. HR is completely clueless indded and have been hit with layoffs quite a bit.
