This episode looks a little different as Host Marissa sits down with our editor, Lauren Lynch, to discuss several topics relevant to layoffs. They’ll chat about the history of layoffs in the United States, the WARN Act of 1989, what rights you may give up when signing and NDA, and what it means to be an at will employee.
