This should be illegal
It often is https://webapps.dol.gov/elaws/eta/warn/glossary.asp?p=Constructive Discharge
Note that isn’t illegal, it just means the company doesn’t get to get out of paying unemployment when it happens. And that’s only if someone is willing to challenge them on it.
You don’t “challenge them on it”. You just file for unemployment.
They have to prove it’s not constructive dismissal to the unemployment department. No, the government arbiter will not like Apple claiming it’s not a hardship. This is a slam dunk case and may result in a fine due to the WARN act.
This is essentially a layoff. Employees signed employment contracts to work in a particular location. You can’t just move that location out of the local area.
What do you mean? If it was, they would just fire someone in CA and hire someone in TX.
Have you not noticed how fucking stupid Texans are? Good luck finding talent
Hiring someone in Texas is different than hiring someone from Texas.
Good point
