How to Handle Severance When Your Role Is Eliminated Not You

from The Layoff Podcast with Fexingo: Severance, Job Loss, and Bouncing Back from Termination · host Fexingo

Episode 23 of The Layoff Podcast digs into a common but confusing layoff scenario: when your job title disappears entirely, not just you. Lucas and Luna walk through a real case from a mid-size tech firm where 12 people in a 'customer success enablement' role all got laid off at once, even the top performer. They explain why role elimination changes your severance leverage, how to frame the story in interviews, and what data points to collect before negotiating. If you've ever wondered why a company would cut a whole function vs. firing individuals, this episode breaks down the strategic reasons and your best next steps. Specific, grounded, and practical. #TheLayoffPodcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Careers #Severance #Layoff #JobLoss #RoleElimination #Negotiation #Leverage #InterviewTips #Resume #TechLayoffs #CustomerSuccess #EmploymentLaw #CareerAdvice #JobSearch #Workplace Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
