I got laid off on Monday. They offered me 5 weeks severance after 8 1/2 years. I was given 24 hours to bring in my laptop, and 48 hours to sign the severance agreement or risk getting just two weeks (illegal). I wrote answered with what I’d like as far as severance goes (much more) what the law stipulates, and didn’t sign of course. They wrote me back very sweetly with an 8 week offer, but I’m countering with more. We’ll see what happens next
Thanks everyone, I’ll keep you all updated
Hey so they’re turning down my 12 week request and insisting on 8. I’m countering with 10 tomorrow
@patrickworld Pretty unbelievable that after 8+ years they'd try to go with a mere *5 weeks*. Good luck!
