Do you folks tell about layoff to HRs

Hello folks, recently one of my friend got laid off. The new company is requesting for any doc/email or acknowledgement. However, he only received FnF and nothing. Wanted to understand if any company gives the doc or any acknowledgement that can be treated as a proof? And any suggestions to tackle this?

Although you become the face of layoffs and you have to abide by what's instructed, how do you personally feel after a event like mass layoff? What steps do you take to avoid or minimise the impact in such cases?

Background, I got laid off from an organisation and by god's grace I had a offer, which was not that good 10% decrement in salary, but me being a scared person joined the company. Now 1 month after I realised I can do much better and market seems to open up. What should I tell the HR in 2 scenarios. 1. I had already started Interviewing and haven't mentioned that I was layed off. What should I tell if I get selected? 2. If a opportunity comes to start Interviewing for seperate company, should I mention about ty current company or no? PS. The work in current organisation is not that good and it's a contractual role.

Have resigned before getting a new job and need to find another one in 2 months How to explain HR why I had to do it.. they were going to force some of us to resign in few months, I did it before that. Can someone help pls

I laid off last week and getting call for interview . They ask me notice period. Should I tell them that I am immediate joinee and tell the reason as laid off? Will it make negative impact for inital screening? My preferable answers will be from HR or person who laid off in past

Checking if there is anyone here who has had to layoff people... How did you do take it mentally and emotionally? Looking for answers from middle managers and HR folks who have to execute decisions taken by others.

HRs are famous for playing cheap tricks with company employees while pretending to act as their allies. HRs are the real snakes. Would be great to hear about any anecdotes or experiences that the members can share.

Recently i got laid off. Now that i start appearing for interviews should i make it explicit i was laid off and i am ready to join immediately. Or should I state something else as the reason of a break that might be there post 1st April ?

Microsoft has lost all respect from me today. Guys please spread the word so that all come to know reality. I am writing this post on behalf of my friend who is still in bad mood having mental trauma. Yesterday my friend from Microsoft was let go from his job in India. He was being pressurised to write relieving letter saying he was quitting at his own will and that the HR apparently said if he didn't write the email in next half or 1 hour he won't be getting any severance or benefits by Microsoft India. Wait..who does this to an employee? He was so tensed yesterday that he is leaving for his hometown in few days, he doest want to do any job for some time, he was literally crying. He said the ones who didnt got laid off have lost the will to work. His friends who got fired are crying as it was least expected from Microsoft. imo even amazon and sf handled the indian layoffs in a better way than Microsoft. Other then that Microsoft peeps are not allowed to write anything rubbish on social media. You can yourself see 3 rounds of layoff have happened in India and you will rarelly see any post yet on LinkedIn. Just imagine to what extent these firms are going to save their image. 😵‍💫🥺 msft used to have best people culture but now its something unimaginable😣

Layoffs are a common theme these days among all kinds of companies. In general, Layoffs are bad for the people affected. I want to hear stories from people who had a layoff that was done with dignity, respect and humanity. Please describe what made your experience of the layoff great and which company were you part of. How a company handles Layoffs reflects a lot on the culture of that company. So let us highlight companies that do Layoffs well.
