A few questions regarding IP:
1) If your outcome was IP and transition out the business, are you financially incentivised to take this (golden handshake)?
2) if so, is this a flat figure or is there a calculation, e.g LoS, length of notice?
3) Can you opt to be transitioned rather than placed on a PIP?

Thanks

Does anyone have experience working for a ALSP? How does compensation work (pay and benefits)? Are you an employee or technically an IC? Do you have billable requirements like at a firm?
