Questions

What people ask about Airtable.

Is Airtable giving severance?

For Airtable first round of layoffs (December 2022), a public source reports at least 16 weeks of severance pay, accelerated equity vesting, and immigration counsel for people on visas, as reported for the December 2022 round. Source: Computerworld, December 9, 2022 · checked September 1, 2026

Your own agreement is the only one that applies to you.

I worked remotely for Airtable. Where do I file for unemployment?

USA.gov: “In most cases, you should file for unemployment in the state where you worked instead of in the state where you live. If you worked outside the state where you currently live or worked remotely, contact your home state’s unemployment office to get help with filing a claim in a different state.” Source: USA.gov, Unemployment benefits · checked September 28, 2026

Find your state's unemployment office (CareerOneStop, sponsored by the US Department of Labor). If you worked at Airtable's site on record, that is the Employment Development Department (EDD). Offboard never sits between you and the agency.

Can I get unemployment if I got severance in California?

The EDD states: “Severance pay is not wages for unemployment insurance purposes and does not affect the claimant’s eligibility for unemployment benefits.” The EDD decides every claim. Source: EDD Benefit Determination Guide, TPU 460.35 · checked September 28, 2026
