To put in my 2 weeks today…and possibly lose out on stocks vesting on the 15th (bc they may let me go on the spot) or to wait… Halp.

If you know you're only a couple weeks from a layoff and you might be affected, I would stick around to find out what the severance package is. In the case of layoff, you'll likely have some kind of window (typically 90 days) to exercise your vested shares.

Compound has some good content on post-termination exercise windows: https://manual.withcompound.com/chapters/post-termination-exercise-window-why-it-sucks-and-what-you-can-do-about-it

Always wait to see the money (or stock) in the account. I have not seen someone walked early just because of a 2-weeks notice, but better to be safe than sorry.

Id wait a week and then put it in to be safe, but you should be good regardless.

i’m pretty sure you’ll get some form of severance if they let you go, no?

If you want to avoid an even small chance of needing a lawyer to make it all right, I would just wait 2 weeks.
