Do the employees have to work during these 3 months? It is not clear from the article. If not, it is quite "competitive".

It's not severance if you're working. Severance comes after you're not working.

Their last day is May 11th, so no they're not working. Otherwise it wouldn't be considered severance pay, that's basically just giving 3 months notice.
