Yechiel ⍼ יחיאל: Broadcom is in the process of giving the VMware folks they acquired a choice, either come into the office or get laid off, and I don't have exact figures but a hella lot of them are choosing option two!

Dell gave employees an ultimatum to return to office some of the week or accept they were never eligible for a promotion ever again. Half the employees shrugged and stayed remote. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024...

Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else”arstechnica.com Workers stayed remote even when told they could no longer be promoted.

Corporatistes can go fk themselves.

I am sorry that you were let go. I am sorry for so many of our friends who were let go, and for those who are staying because it’s a job and the market sucks right now. But, my goodness, choosing severance over the BC offer in November feels like it was the second-best work decision I ever made.

(Joining Pivotal was the best one, by a mile.)

Seconded!

Yeah I regretted not taking the severance back then after finding out (too late) that the severance would be in addition to WARN. In any case, I got it now 🤷
