If you knew in advance about being laid off, how would you YOLO the exit interview? (lemmy.ca)

I am fairly sure that I am being laid off with other Sr. Engineers tomorrow and need some ideas. Basically, I saw a calendar mistake by HR, so oops!

Meh. It's gonna suck for a bit, but whatevers. Life is more important than a shit job. :)

You’re either burning or getting paid out on your PTO, right? Around my parts it’s common to burn 2 weeks of PTO before your last day.

"Unlimited PTO". It sounds great until people realize how it actually works. There isn't anything to pay out or take, unfortunately.

Just decide to take some now, as far as they know you don't know that meeting is an exit interview, tell them something came up and you need to use some of your unlimited PTO, take a couple of weeks while looking for something else then come back

I like this idea

Is a scam.

I found out at my previous job that MN doesn't actually require employers to pay out unused PTO.
