This is why they did it. It’s a great way to reduce headcount without paying severence.

Forced relocation of more than 20 miles or so (some reasonable amount that doesn’t require a move) should not allow a company to get out of severance. That should be illegal.

It’s not exactly illegal but it is considered constructive dismissal which at least qualifies you for unemployment.
