Layoffs are brutal. For everyone involved.
Your company is facing a perfect storm: unemployment claims draining 6-figure budgets, Glassdoor reviews threatening your employer brand, and remaining employees watching nervously to see how you treat "the ones who didn't make it."
Meanwhile, traditional outplacement providers are charging premium prices for outdated career counseling that leaves your former employees unemployed for 8+ months.
Here's what you actually need:
A system that gets displaced employees hired in 44 days (not 255), protects your reputation, slashes unemployment costs, and shows your remaining team you take care of people even during the hardest decisions.
That's exactly what Pounding Pavement 101 delivers.
TECH COMPANIES
Navigating workforce reductions while protecting your employer brand and retaining top talent
MID-MARKET ORGANIZATIONS
Making tough decisions with limited HR resources and needing maximum impact per dollar spent
PRIVATE EQUITY FIRMS
Managing portfolio company transitions and maintaining deal value through seamless workforce changes
ENTERPRISE CORPORATIONS
Executing large-scale restructuring while minimizing legal exposure and unemployment costs
- Sharon, Report Analyst
Pounding Pavement 101 isn't your typical outplacement provider.
This is a battle-tested, recruiter-designed system that gets displaced employees hired fast because I've spent 15+ years placing executives and know exactly what companies want.
Your laid-off employees don't need sympathy. They need strategy.
- Jules, Technology Leader
The Problem with Traditional Services:
Generic advice that treats all job seekers the same, regardless of industry, experience level, or market conditions.
The Pounding Pavement 101 Advantage:
Recruiter-designed strategies tailored to today's hiring landscape, with insider knowledge that cuts through the noise.
❌ WITHOUT EFFECTIVE OUTPLACEMENT:
Average unemployment claim: $450/week × 26 weeks × 50 employees = $585,000
Severance packages: $150,000+
Potential legal fees: $50,000-$200,000
Employer brand damage: Unmeasurable but devastating for recruiting - Lost productivity from anxious remaining employees: 20-30% decline - TOTAL COST: $785,000 - $935,000+
✅ WITH POUNDING PAVEMENT 101:
Employees hired in 44 days (6.3 weeks) instead of 255 days (36 weeks)
Unemployment Savings: ~$465,000 (80% reduction in claims duration)
Legal Risk Reduction: Comprehensive support reduces lawsuit probability
Glassdoor Protection: Former employees become advocates, not critics
Team Morale Boost: Retention improves when people see you care
Investment in Outplacement: Fraction of your savings
NET SAVINGS: $400,000 - $600,000
(for just 50 employees)
The question isn't whether
you can afford outplacement.
It's whether you can
afford NOT to do it right.
- Chris, Technology Leader
Slash Unemployment Costs
Every week someone remains unemployed costs your company $450-$900 in unemployment claims. Our 44-day average placement (vs. 255-day industry average) saves you $8,000-$16,000 PER PERSON in unemployment costs alone. For a 50-person layoff, that's $400,000-$800,000 back in your budget.
Reduce Legal Risks
Comprehensive outplacement support reduces the chance of wrongful termination lawsuits and other legal complications.
Protect Your Employer Brand
When you invest in your employer brand post-employment, it shows potential new stars that the company values its team members.
Boost Team Morale
Remaining employees feel more secure knowing that if layoffs happen, they'll get world-class support to land on their feet.
Protect Your Reputation
Every successful placement reflects well on your company. When former employees land great jobs quickly, they become brand ambassadors instead of cautionary tales.
Do Right by Your People
Give departing employees the best possible chance at career success. Show your remaining team that you care about people even after they leave.
Maintain Professional Relationships
Former employees who receive excellent outplacement support often return as clients, partners, or even boomerang employees when conditions improve.
