Strong Technical Role Undermined by Leadership and Layoffs - Technical Lead Office Practicum Employee Review

Great people, work life balance, meaningful work, remote

Nothing specific comes to mind

Work from home opportunity, benefits

I joined Office Practicum excited to be part of a company that values healthcare professionals and supports their growth. Unfortunately, my experience ended abruptly and without clarity. I was told I was being let go for “not meeting expectations,” but at no point during my employment did anyone communicate specific issues, concerns, or areas where I needed to improve. I consistently received positive feedback from my trainer and team, and I was under the impression that I was doing well. There were no write-ups, no performance meetings, no coaching sessions—just a sudden 9:00 AM meeting placed on my calendar where I was informed of my termination. The lack of transparency and communication was both confusing and hurtful. It felt like decisions were made behind closed doors, and unfortunately, I couldn’t help but feel that bias or race may have played a role. I was treated cordially up until the very moment I was terminated, which made the experience even more disheartening. I believe that a company truly invested in its employees should offer constructive feedback, training support, and open dialogue before making such a serious decision. That didn’t happen here. I hope Office Practicum takes a closer look at how terminations are handled and ensures fairness, consistency, and communication across all employees moving forward
