  1. Employees lost main system access and federated logins around 4:00 AM, followed by Slack disconnection between 5:00 AM and 5:30 AM.
  2. Formal layoff notices were delivered after system lockouts and were generically signed by "Oracle Leadership".
  3. As reported in earlier communications, impacted workers are receiving four weeks of base salary plus one week's pay for every year of service.
