Surreptious layoffs - Senior Advisory Consultant Fiserv Employee Review

Not bold enough to communicate layoff decision to the employees in writing. Holding surreptious video call and informing that if you send a one liner resignation mail, we give you so much (gratuity, notice pay, severeance, leave encashment etc) but no communication in writing. Access to system is removed immediately after the call. If any one trusts it and resigns then there is no guarantee that their oral offer of compensation will be honoured by HR.
