Internal Offboarding Process

This page outlines the process our internal teams complete once a teammate has let their manager and the People team know they are leaving Sourcegraph.

Offboarding checklist

We track offboarding tasks by creating a Process St checklist for each departing teammate. The departing teammate’s People partner will create the teammate’s offboarding checklist. These checklists are for internal use only, the teammate does not need to complete any Process St. tasks.

People Ops, Payroll, Tech Ops, and Security use the checklist to track the following offboarding tasks.
