I have been with my company for six years, consistently performing at a top level with perfect reviews. However, I am now facing a likely layoff due to a company restructure. It's frustrating because I know my work is essential, but the decisions are being made by people who don't fully understand my role. I'm preparing for the layoff conversation and wondering what to expect. Will they provide a clear explanation for the decision? Is it appropriate for me to question their understanding of my contributions and the potential costs of letting me go? Additionally, I am currently pregnant, so I'm curious about my options for negotiating severance or benefits. I want to be ready for how quickly they might have me sign any paperwork after the meeting.
