Do we get a severance package if we quit? Or is it only if you're fired?

I don't think you understand the concept of severance - no, you don't get paid extra for your decisions....

Only if fired / reduced and not for cause (you haven't committed fraud, etc). In either case you will get paid out remaining PTO.

OP if that was the case, people would quit at even higher rates..

You get only if you are laid off.

Only if let go. Something may or may not be defined in your employment contract but severance is only typically contractually guaranteed at more senior levels. Any remaining accrued vacation will be paid out regardless of departure method.

Yeeeeeah that makes sense...I'm dum w/e

like

Quit: No severance
Laid off: You will get a severance, typically 1 week for every year of service, but often more.
Fired for cause: Nothing, there's the door

Please note, termination due to chargeability can be either a layoff or for cause. You need to confirm with HR which it is.

A2- believe it's 2 weeks for every year of service

At D I'm pretty sure severance is 2 weeks per year of service

Damn 2 wks per year? That seems like it could add up

The whole point of severance is to have one final string to pull to control you after you leave.

It's one week per year. I was a few days away from being laid off earlier this year.

I'm CDO. So your alignment might determine the amount you get as well. Search the portal for the official policy.

Is it the smart move to take a pay cut and clerk for a judge?

Little context: I was an ED student, full time paralegal/clerk throughout my law school experience, and a single mother. I did not take advantage of the law school extracurriculars and missed out on clerk application deadlines my final year (2020). Would it benefit me to take a pay cut as a transactional clerk by about $20k to work as a clerk for a year then re-enter firm life? I’m transactional and enjoy that line of work.

Hello all. My company just went through an acquisition and the company did some restructuring of job titles. When they did this we were all advised the company would be making sure our jobs pay aligned with the national average.
My issue with this is my job title went from a Technical Support Supervisor to a Customer Success Team Lead. I have voiced my concerns with management but have been advised job titles are semantics. In my eyes this is a demotion, and will affect how much my job is worth.
