Thank you for this advice - I've started to reach out to some lawyers to get some direction.

I'll also write a formal email to the Founder to understand his intent.

Thanks for the response. Yes, I am located in Washington DC, but was working remotely for a company based in Kentucky.

The employer failed to make payroll for two straight pay cycles before deciding to layoff the entire engineering department. Impacted employees include my boss, my peer engineers and other W2s at the former company.

The CEO mentioned numerous times they would make payroll but continuously missed timelines before ultimately laying us off via Slack. We haven't received any formal termination/severance documents.
