There are no laws that prevent a company locking you out of its systems.

As stated, thats standard practice. No one has been "fired" yet.

Odd, I've spoken to two UK employees & 3 in SF all confirming they have.

Have to disagree, Paul - it happens in some exceptional circumstances, but I haven’t seen it as "standard practice" in the 40 years I worked in IT & Business (usually when someone is know to be a "problem").

I’ve been made redundant five times (and been put "at risk" two more times), and never been locked out of systems whilst the redundancy process took place; I’ve also had to run redundancy processes a couple of times, and only in one case did we lock someone out, and that was because they had made it known they were going to be a problem if redundancies were going to happen (but he was still paid until the redundancy process was completed, and his package was agreed).

You can disagree all you want, that wont change the fact its normal.
I have been made redundant three times, and in all cases all my access was removed straight away.

I have also been the administrator of countless systems in my working life, and its always been standard practice to remove such access as soon as anyone is made redundant (or fired). In some cases, as soon as they resign (and go on "gardening" leave).

We’ve obviously had different experiences.

Re: [Updated] Elon Musk $44 Billion Twitter deal back on
 

I think it depends on the employee and the role. I’ve seen people supervised by security and escorted from site, ensuring they do not access the network, no doubt their accounts would also have been immediately suspended, when made redundant/ fired.

And others have access whilst on garden leave right up until the day they officially leave.

Removing access to slack and email is to minimise the internal chatter

Done properly code repositories should be protected by sso and adaptive mfa at a minimum
SSH keys can be easily rotated out and if ldap is used those accounts should be managed via the upstream iam/iga

These are the two most important things to protect

Yes and if they are,they should all sue...... I dont think ya can just let someone go w/no reason??

I thought you lived in the USA?

49 out of the 50 States have "at will" employment laws…

Re: [Updated] Elon Musk $44 Billion Twitter deal back on
 

Employment laws, or lack of them, is big issue in America.

Watch this U.S expat, explain differences between American employment vs UK’s.

Re: [Updated] Elon Musk $44 Billion Twitter deal back on
 

I'm that unlucky one that gets to work up until his last day, it's happened to me three out of four times when redundant now.

I applied and got voluntary redundancy back in May, I was accepted and could have gone the same day I was informed, but told them I wanted to work another two weeks to finish off the report I was working on (I had already told the customer that was my plan). The manager sent me comments on the report on the Friday afternoon which was my last day, he thought I was going to respond to them then, yea right!

In contrast, some people were sent off site immediately.
