I can’t give more approval for this woman, she handled everything so well.
The backstory is that Cloudflare overhired and wanted to reduce headcount, rightsize, whatever terrible HR wording you choose. Instead of admitting that this was a layoff, which would grant her things like severance and unemployment - they tried to tell her that her performance was lacking.
And for most of us (myself included) we would angrily accept it and trash the company online. Not her, she goes directly against them. It of course doesn’t go anywhere because HR is a bunch of robots with no emotions that just parrot what papa company tells them to, but she still says what all of us wish we did.
(Warning, if you’ve ever been laid off this is a bit enraging and can bring up some feelings)
Could she threaten to sue for slander. They are telling her that her performance was sub par. She can prove it wasn’t. I would cut them off after those comments are made and tell them a lawyer will contact them.
This is not slander. It would be slander/libel if they went out and proclaimed she sucked at her job with nothing tl back it up.
Good point. Slander would not be the correct term here.
She’s the one who made this public.
I hope so, but is it a right to work state? Not a lawyer, but absolutely ask one. Recall that that costs money though, and she no longer has an income. It’s wildly disadvantaged against the workers here.
