[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so sorry OP. Truly. I’d get a consult with an attorney just to be safe. [/quote]
Oh please. OP sucked at work. End of story.[/quote]

Nah, if it's only been 6 mos and no documented issues, how badly could OP even have screwed up? Sounds like "first in, first out" to me.[/quote]

This is OP and I believe this is it.  I was hitting deadlines, the projects were moving along, everything was smooth.  I wasn’t a big fan of their management style, which was very prescriptive/micro-managey, but every place has its flaws and quirks.

They projected $17m in revenue for the year and will barely hit $12.  From my perspective it is hands down a financial decision, they’re just CYA by firing “for cause.” I’m just in shock and it really added insult to injury. [/quote]

The thing is, if this is the reason, they are fine saying this and laying you off because of it.  You have zero case if you are laid off.  Can't pay people with money you don't have.  Them firing you for cause is actually the option that opens them up to you getting a lawyer.

I agree feels like part of the story is missing.[/quote]
