The tweet doesn't make it clear, but are these remote or on-site employees? If remote, while cold, I don't see the issue with a remote notification.

Yeah I don't get why people think being laid off via zoom is cruel. I'd think making a remote employee come in just to be fired would be more cruel.
I have been laid off once in my career. Wasn't a big surprise since it was the 4th round of layoffs and the company was in the middle of a financial scandal. All employees were onsite and the layoffs all occurred via a scripted conference call. HR folks distributed the document packets in person but would not speak except to say they were not allowed to say anything to us.
