I used this strategy once. It lasted over a year (at a big tech company).

In case this isn't an April fool's joke, severance is typically paid during layoffs.

It's not something that is typically paid out when someone resigns.

PTO is your severance

Genius move by companies. “We offer unlimited PTO to our employees.” Employee accepts. Handbook says “While we offer unlimited PTO for our employees, it is up to the approval of your manager. We recommend xx days for this level” and so on.

Yes, tell them you're being let go because of whatever reason your resigning, and you resigning is simply taking the initiative

What about severance when getting fired?

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.

How do you feel about splitting everything 50-50 with your partner? I don’t feel as rigid about it bc I feel it balances out one way or another, but my partner feels as if he owes me if we don’t split 50-50 and I pay more. I get where he’s coming from but 50-50 just feels transactional and not intimate.
For context: I make 3x more than he does and he’s still finishing his medical fellowship, so I don’t feel it’s a matter of feeling less than.
