Layoff guide · California

Laid off from Robinhood? Here’s what your severance should be.

Robinhood announced a restructuring in 2026 that, per public reporting, affects about 10% of its full-time workforce — roughly 290 roles. If you were affected, you likely have more room to negotiate than a first offer suggests.

Robinhood disclosed an aggregate severance charge rather than a per-employee formula, so the right move is to estimate a fair range for your own role and tenure below and compare it against whatever you were offered. Robinhood is headquartered in Menlo Park, California, which has its own layoff-notice rules on top of the federal WARN Act.

Before you sign your Robinhood severance agreement

A first severance offer is almost always a starting point. The company expects most people to accept it without a word — which is exactly why a specific, market-grounded counter so often works. Use the estimate above to see whether your offer is low, fair, or already generous for your role and tenure, then negotiate from there. If you are 40 or older in the US, you are entitled to time to review the agreement before signing; in Canada, your provincial minimum is a floor, not the real number.
