The way US companies do these kinds of layoffs staggering. In the UK redundancies are announced, the areas of the business to be impacted are informed, there is a review period of a few days to a few weeks, you are then told you are being made redundant or not, you then have a chance to propose an alternative role if you wish and if you’re still being let go you will be told a date and a process put in place for exiting. At a large company this process can take a couple of months and the steps are made very clear and transparent.
