It's not actually a layoff, but it's not a great sign if this happens to you.
data from financial research platform AlphaSense, which found that the mention of “reassignment” terms have more than tripled during company earnings calls between last August and this month.
“The messaging that I have heard is, ‘You have to take it or leave it. And it’s your choice.’ So there is no severance language around getting some sort of compensation,” said Nadia De Ala, founder of Real You Leadership, a group coaching program for women of colour.
But in a lot of cases, it could have no benefits and may just be a way of pushing you to quit. Rahbar said the practice of “quiet cutting” is not new to this summer, and one of the main reasons it happens is so that the company can avoid paying severance to employees. In these cases, whether or not you can thrive after a “quiet cut” can depend on if you are being set up for success or if you’re being set up to do more work with less resources.
At the same time, if it’s happening suddenly without your feedback, that’s not a good sign.
Rahbar said it can help an employment lawyer if you can figure out who else got a reassignment. “Did this happen to anyone else on your team? Did this happen to anyone else in your bigger group or division? Is it just happening to a particular gender?” Rahbar said you should try to find out.If “the new assignment is significantly inferior in pay, seniority, or work conditions, then it can be considered retaliatory if this is done shortly after a protected activity,” Stygar said.
