What if the most important hiring decision a company makes is how it lets people go? When Canva recently announced a restructuring affecting over 1,200 employees, the reaction wasn’t outrage, it was applause. With packages offering at least six months of pay, a year of healthcare, and $10,000 grants to start new ventures, the move sparked conversations across the tech world. As 7 in 10 job seekers turn to AI chatbots that scrape sites like Glassdoor and Indeed to evaluate potential employers, a company's offboarding strategy has quickly become its next recruiting pitch. Fortune Editorial Director Kristin Stoller joins host Ellie Austin to discuss why a layoff isn’t the end of the story anymore.
