Layoff notice, what does the 60 days mean? (Omaha)

I received a formal notice about a mass layoff at my workplace. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I do not know if I should start looking now or wait for severance news. Should I stay for the bonus?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

The workforce board ran a rapid-response session for us with résumé help and information on benefits. Ask if yours will.
