The HR Team Values Your Mental Health — Also You Could Get Laid Off At Any Moment
Some of you might be getting a lot of days off, if you think about it.
Dear Employees,
As valued members of this company, the HR team wants to remind you that nothing is more important than your mental health. Take some time, slow down, relax. Also, we are expecting a series of layoffs that could happen at any time.
Studies have shown that stress and anxiety can impair your performance at work, and we want you to know that we are here for you. Side note, the layoffs actually may be happening this week. Or next. Or the week after. It sort of depends on how this meeting with Todd goes.
In our annual survey you told us that having one extra personal day off each year would make a big difference, and we listened. However, the executive team may ask for that day back — depending on if they let you go or not. Some of you might be getting a lot of days off, if you think about it. It’s going to be different for every department, except for Sales. For some reason those guys are getting a pass.
Good mental health is vitally connected to our ability to do our jobs. Also, if you’re in Marketing, the word is that 40% of you don’t have those jobs anymore. Todd just told us.
