Severance Question: 1 month vs. 2 weeks per year of service

I was looking through my new employee paperwork from when I started at Wells many moons ago, and at that time the company policy was 1 month of severance for every year of service. Sometime in 2017, the policy apparently changed to just 2 weeks per year.

My questions are: Can the company legally change a severance policy like that? Did employees have to sign something acknowledging the change?

I vaguely remember seeing something about this in the OWBPA or on Teamworks before I was laid off. I’m especially wondering whether older, long-tenured employees have any recourse.

Please only weigh in if you actually know the answer or have relevant experience. The snarky remarks are getting old. Thanks!


September Layoffs

All the major banks are going to do massive layoffs in September.Many citizens will be impacted. You all must protest!

The CEOs lack morality and they like to eat from the plates of hardworking Americans! and they love to see them go homeless. Some of the CEOs in this country are not even Americans!. They don't give a damn for any of you.

The current government is incapable of protecting citizens. Many jobs will go overseas and many Americans will be replaced by immigrants here in the country. So sad!


This is Layoff.com

Why are so many “leaders” sharing their business lessons here? No Nike leader is listening. Let’s get back to what this forum is actually for. If anyone has real intel on layoffs, reorgs or what’s coming, speak up


JPMorgan Reduces Jersey City Workforce

JPMorgan Chase has announced an additional 63 job cuts at its Jersey City office. This latest reduction brings the total number of layoffs at this location to 541 for the year. The company cited ongoing efforts to align staffing with business requirements as the reason for these actions. Artificial intelligence is reportedly contributing to staff reductions in certain departments. These cuts are part of a recurring pattern of workforce adjustments at the Jersey City site throughout 2026.

Qlik folks — what should Coupa expect

Now that Mike Lipps is running Coupa, I’m curious what former/current Qlik employees can share about his operating style there.

How did he approach layoffs, reorganizations, replacing C-level executives, acquisitions/integration, and cost cutting? Was he generally a “steady the ship” CEO, or did he make pretty significant changes when he came in?

I’m particularly interested in what actually happened on the ground versus the official company messaging.

Disney Offers Early Retirement to Executives

The company is providing voluntary early retirement packages to eligible executives as part of broader cost-cutting initiatives. This program aims to offer enhanced benefits to employees who meet specific age and service criteria. The offer is a time-limited opportunity for U.S.-based employees at director through EVP levels. This move follows previous layoff rounds and signals continued efforts to reshape the organization. Disney is focusing investments on content, technology, and experiences for future growth.

The G Problem

What has Gunjan done since making cries about inequality, racism, not having a seat at the table, and how the C suite is full of the good old boys club to get to where she is? Nothing but major cuts, more unqualified offshore hiring, bad business practices and decisions, achieved nothing meaningful, and worst performance then her previous predecessors. It is sad to watch the downfall of US Bank.


Ryan Reynolds just bashed Simplicity

I just saw an ad with Ryan Reynolds bashing our not so simple Simplicity Plan, and then offering Mint Mobile for $15 for 3 months.

I feel like it's going to be a carrier di-k measuring contest at this point and we'll all just go back and forth with cheap plans, perks, layoffs, repeat.

We'll just recycle everything over and over again, pretending like it's all so revolutionary of an idea 😵‍💫🤮


Layoffs canceled again what’s going on

So apparently the August layoffs are completely canceled again.

At this point, does anyone actually know what’s going on at Oracle?

For weeks we’ve been hearing about another major round of cuts coming in August, managers supposedly making lists, double-digit reductions on some teams, 6 a.m. emails, cuts before September 1, etc. People have basically been sitting around waiting to find out whether they still have a job.

And now… nothing? Canceled again?

The constant back-and-forth is getting ridiculous. One week everyone is convinced a huge RIF is imminent, then the date moves, then rumors start again, and now supposedly August is off entirely.

Has anyone heard anything credible internally about what changed? Are the layoffs actually canceled, just postponed into September, or is nobody—including management—really sure what the plan is anymore?

Would especially like to hear from Oracle employees/managers who have gotten an actual update rather than another round of Blind rumors.


Any further information regarding Home & Community layoffs with losing Humana?

Seems like no one has any official word on what restructure will look like, how many can expect to be cut, when it may be announced vs when it will take effect. Any word from the “rumor mill?” Seems to be all we have. I’m a CC in a heavy Humana state.
