Tech Employee Shares Video of Her Being Fired

Meghan Kelley can't call anyone whiny. She sued her employer when she was fired.

It’s called lying about needing someone for a temp job.

Half a year ago, 3 months after receiving a yearly bonus for "great performance", I was let go for poor performance. Instead of admitting to layoffs, they blame it on the employees, harming their self esteem and disrespecting their inteligence.

Sadly once HR makes their decision, then there is nothing you can do to try to salvage your job

Judging from the video alone, she has the right to know as to why she was being fired. Regardless of whether she was a terrible employee or not, the fact that they won't even get into the specifics is just cruel.

The company can at least tell you why you're being let go.

That's the way the world works, you can be a devoted employee trying, working hard etc but a company never loves anybody. Never love a company because it will not love you back. Always keep the back door open. That's what an 'old school' trucker told me years ago.

Sometimes you can do everything right and still be accused of doing everything wrong. They will gas light you, scapegoat you, or set you up for failure.

I'm a software engineer, my last role I gave the company a 2 day notice, they were flabbergasted, they wanted a one month notice. The same company had let go of my friend in one day, they didn't let him know ahead of time. Idk why corporate america wants these notices especially if you're a terrible company.

It’s ironic that you have to give a two week notice before leaving a job because it’s professional but they can fire you when ever they want. The CEO is right, that HR lady is horrible. Not “I’m sorry, I know this hard”. She went with “I’m sorry you feel this way”. Complete lack of empathy. Then again she works in HR for a reason.

now you can doordash and join the rest of us in poverty

Girlfriend, I know exactly how that feels. I was laid off my job my dream job !!! 2 1/2 months ago. After working there for almost a full year. I’m still trying to recover from something like this. It truly is a slap in the face. I had the exact situation happen to me. It hurts like a M.F. But I’m proud of her, VERY proud!

This happened to my sister 2 weeks ago, employee of the year been there 2 years they relocated her to boston 5 months ago for a new job, then let her go after 5 months and relocating. Cold hearted, nothing to explain, sick people. World is cruel place

Never get too attached to anything, even your own shadow leaves you when it gets dark. (wise proverb).

MEGAN SHOUDN'T CALL ANYONE WHINY!

"We're terminating you but we can't tell you why right now. So sorry you're having this experience". Wait, what?

“I’m really sorry you’re having this experience and feeling this way.” That means NOTHING.

Megyn Kelly should take her own advice.

The reality of it is that a lot of employers do this and will continue to do this. They don't need a solid reason to let anyone go, and won't give you notice. I've been fired for no reason, and even ghosted by an IT contractor regarding contract termination and any further work with the company. It's just something we all have to deal with. Companies like to fire without notice and ghost employees, so employees should be able to do the same... and they do. No employer loyalty, so no employee loyalty. It goes both ways.
