My whole team was cut and I want to say it calmly. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I have been practising in the mirror. Do they ask follow-ups?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

I keep it to two sentences: the company cut my team, and here is what I am proud of and what I am looking for next.
