Thread regarding 2U Inc. layoffs

Evil. Truly evil.

I have nothing to say other than they are diabolically evil. Weeks before Christmas? Why couldn’t this wait until after the near year?

You are all just disposable numbers to 2U.

There exceptions to the Warn act:
A mass layoff results in fewer than 50 workers losing their jobs at a single employment site;
If 50 to 499 workers lose their jobs and that number is less than 33% of the employer's total, active workforce at a single employment site. So 2U is an exception.

Does anyone know how many people were let go? Someone mentioned the Warn Act where they are supposed to give us 60 days notice of mass layoffs.

i'm pretty in the dark but scrolling linkedin it looks like bootcamps got the bulk of it. i also see a few people from admissions were impacted. but if anybody finds out more please share so we can get a better understanding of what actually took place. might help the rest of us guess what will come next

Mass Meetings? They laid off groups at a time? What groups?

So wait after the new year and have these people be behind on sending out job applications? Statistically January is the best time to apply for jobs. There’s never a good time to be laid off but at least theres severance and you are able to prepare for a robust job opening cycle.

Why? Because they don’t give a sh*t about you! They couldn’t even have the decency of letting us say goodbye to our team. Was cut off from everything during HR meeting! Not surprised.

Like the Holiday Lexus commercials say, "It will be a DECEMBER to REMEMBER!" 😍

I am glad they are getting rid of the bloat and use less employees. Now for a happy song, please sing with me:

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
