There was a company meeting scheduled via an emailed calendar invite late on September 26th, 2018. On September 27th, 2018 Management explained that there were going to be layoffs with no severance, no warning or heads-up at all. It is also a company policy that you are to forgo any PTO hours upon termination of employment (most companies will pay out PTO upon termination, as it is an earned benefit). Everyone proceeded to freak out until they were called into the office one at a time to be read their fate. When it was over, a significant amount of the Columbus office was laid off. I can't speak to the St. Louis office, but I can imagine that it wasn't much better of a situation out there.
