Telltale Games booted its employees out of the office with a 30 minute evacuation order on the day of their closure, and employees were not paid for their work and were not paid severance pay. They were not informed of Telltale's closure until they day they were booted out of the offices. They should have been given 2 weeks notice, and they all deserved some form of severance pay.

Until I know that Telltale Games paid their employees the severance pay that they were owed, at the very least, I can't support them. I loved their Walking Dead and Batman games, but if the talent who made those games haven't been compensated from when they were shitcanned and booted onto the street, that goodwill means nothing. Take care of the people you fucked in the ass, or go bankrupt again you corrupt pussies.

I assumed the new Telltale is that in name only?

No one is rightfully owed severance pay?

Back pay yes, but not severance.

Maybe so, but I think if you find out that your position has been made redundant 30 minutes before you're expected to vacate your office, you're entitled to severance pay.

If a business does its due diligence, they might be able to avoid paying severance pay. Dozens of employees were content in their job position, unaware that they no longer had a job, until they were informed that they had a 30 minute time limit to evacuate their office. Each of those employees are entitled to some form of severance pay.
