Definitely negotiate that severance. What a shit deal

How do you negotiate severance? Don't you have zero leverage in that situation?

[โ€“] Dio9sys@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 9 months ago

Some severance packages will have a non disparagement clause in it, or they'll say you can't recruit people to xyz competitor for a number of years. You can then say "yes I can do that, but if and only if you give me 20% extra of my estimated salary"
