TR says it has already notified all impacted 3200 employees. How much of it is true? Does it mean remaining are safe?
If impacted employees have been informed, why wait until 2020 to lay them off? Something doesn't add up.

@9xri - did TR let go everyone from Legal Tracker? Why move it haphazardly to Toronto? Sounds like they are preparing to sell off Legal Tracker.
The Bellevue staff was informed about their layoffs in December. The separation dates varied a lot people leaving between Feb/2019 and Sep/2019.
Everyone but higher ups are convinced it was a very bad decision to keep the product (Legal Tracker) but eliminate all the in-house expertise, dropping a big ball of mud on a new team being haphazardly assembled in Toronto. Pray for that new team.
Where does this info come from? I haven’t heard about 3,200 layoffs.
Not every termination is "30 mins to move out after you are informed." I was in Tax & Accounting in Hoboken and most of the people whose positions were eliminated along with mine in November 2018 were given two weeks notice, minimum. Most were given more and a few were extended to Dec. 31. It may depend on the particular job or location but I didn't hear of anyone being escorted out the same day carrying a cardboard box.
Old news and no I have not been informed of my lay-off.
If I get a hint that I am on my way out why will I work for another year? You are never informed in advance. You get 30 mins to move out after you are informed. Take nice severance package while going out, will ya?
One more source for the 3,200, also from December 2018.

One source for the 3,200 number. This articles says "by the end of 2020."
