If the school is still open but let go all of the Admissions staff , then we would not get any pay through WARN, correct? That’s only if the school closed right then, correct? The school I worked for ceased enrollments and let all Admissions staff go, so no severance for us???? 🙁🙁🙁🙁

The letters have been recieved across the board. Up to 8 weeks of severance total. Depending years service with both companies. That's the max..
Better than nothing. Being paid till 7/13 and severance. You must however sign the release..but what they count on, is people not knowing that they can't sign their rights away. Doesn't hold up in court. Let's say there was a class action suite filed later on. Many Adas feel defamed by this debacle, as they are being looked at like vilians, when they were jst doing their jobs. They Knew nothing about the lies DCEH were telling them. Now most can get closure and move on. This reminds me of an episode of Friends when someone broke up with some one via sticky notes! No they may be broke as DCEH HOLDINGS, but still have ties to Dream Center its self and they have plenty, they are not broke!
That is not true about 60 days. Sounds like they are paying two weeks only.
How the Warn Act works: If a company lays off or terminates the employment of 100 or more employees at any one location or a total of 1000 or more at numerous locations the company must give said employees at least 60 days notice of termination. Also, severance packages are NOT mandatory for any company.
The admissions who were terminated the other day didn't receive a 60 day notice of their termination. Because of that, they will receive their wages for 60 days from when they received the termination notice. If they worked between the notice and their termination then the 60 day compensation will be 60 days minus the days worked after the notice was issued.
We were never told that and no one knows anything. We were told they would send us info on “next steps”
Probably another lie. All they did was lie! I remember just a few weeks ago they sent an email about making improvements in regards to programs and compensation . What a joke!
The remaining employees at the Michigan campus were told that the people in admissions would receive compensation packages in the mail. Probably another lie to keep the rest of us from jumping ship.
I worked for AI and was let go with no information pertaining to severance. The school is still open for no but no info on when it will close for good.
