The HR rep is the real red flag. The other two could be there for exciting announcements too.

Yep. I knew our company's death-march lawsuit of IBM had reached me when my boss immediately asks "Elaine, are you on the call?" I took the news stoically enough, so much that they asked whether I was okay, and something like the 137th layoff for this company is my only one so far.
