Party City Employee Calls Out The Company For Laying Off Employees Without Any Advance Warning
by Matthew Gilligan
I feel bad for these folks…
In case you missed it, Party City filed for bankruptcy in December 2024, closed its stores, and laid off all its employees without warning.
A TikTokker named Hebah who worked at a Party City store posted a video and talked about what happened.
She told viewers, “We were given zero days notice. So no, the WARN [Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification] act didn’t come into play.”
Hebah continued, “We were told that the company is shut down effective immediately. The company had been involved in a lot of shady things, which I could get into.”
She added, “They were not able to dig themselves out of the grave.”
Check out the video.
@hebahwithanh Shame on them. And yes i know my smoke detector is beeping leave me alone. #partycity #toxic #layedoff #unemployed
Hebah posted another video and talked to viewers about some of the “shady” things that she alleges were going on with the company.
