The scale of layoffs this time is even larger than the round at the end of 2022/early 2023, accounting for about 10% of the headquarters' workforce. Looking back to January 2023, my team was laid off on a large scale. The most memorable moment was the night before the incident. Everyone knew that this was going to happen, but they didn't know who would be affected. They could only contact each other on Slack/Time and leave their contact information
I learned at Blind that there is an Old Workers Benefits Protection Act specifically designed for employees over the age of 40 in the United States. Employees over the age of 40 can have a 21 day consideration period after being notified of layoffs, and even signed layoff agreements can be revoked within 7 days. You can also request the company to provide specific information about layoffs, such as which team was affected, the job titles and ages of other laid-off personnel, to avoid age discrimination by employers
