Yeah had that happen and it was clear why (small company closed down)

Starting from 6 months the CEOs explained how things are and what would need to happen in order to avoid it.

Two months prior they layed everyone off (including themselves) which is double the legally required minimum period.

In the end we closed down the office together and parted ways.

Most people had offers lined up and at least one colleague of mine ended up with a former customer. The CEO "advertised" him during the final call with the customer.

Yeah, I've been "laid off" by the same person three times in my career; each time he worked to hire me back as soon as he had a new venture going.
