Last place I worked went through I think 5 mass firings in two years (kinda lost count). By the end of it any time a last minute meeting was on the books our lead would send out emails telling us not to worry and give a brief overview of what it was about. That was a stressful couple of years x.x
Last minute meeting is scheduled: Panik
Manager normally sends out emails to let us know what they’re for: Kalm
Manager didn’t send an overview this time: Panik
At least there was some structure. During mass layoffs at my last job all meetings were canceled. Everyone had to sit in their work pens until their manager came and got them for their individual layoff/HR meeting. After years of that every few months I gave up hoping it would eventually be me so I could get out of there. Ultimately had to chuck it in the fuck it bucket and quit. Good riddens.

So exactly what a meeting invite should be?
Sad that it took that kind of scenario to figure that out.
