An ex-Googler said finding out they'd get far less stock than expected felt like a 'second kick in the chest' after losing their job
An ex-Google worker who found out they'd be getting about 40% less stock than expected after losing their job said it felt like"a second kick in the chest in three weeks.". Each employee in the US received a generic layoff email followed by a personalized message outlining their individual severance package.
The person asked to remain anonymous because they are still seeking a new role. Insider has verified their identity and employment history. "Admittedly, I had done my own rough calculations. I thought to myself: huh, that number [of stocks] seems pretty high. But then I thought: Maybe this is them saying, 'Hey, we're taking care of you because we did a shitty thing to you at the last minute'."
