Not fired (you don’t get severance if you’re fired?); but angled a redundancy during the advanced stages of landing a new job. If you’re going to leave you might as well get paid for it.

Was the absolute dream.

Guessing OP doesn't mean fired for cause but rather finding a way to get laid off. Seems like a difficult angle to play though unless there are other factors at play.

I know someone that had been somewhere a long time and the company was doing layoffs. They made a point to not deliver as much value around that time and was laid off with half a year’s salary. Had another job within a month

Has anyone ever asked to renegotiate their salary after starting a job? I’m 2 months into my new job and I have far more responsibilities than what I was told. It’s a lot different than what was relayed in the posting and during the interviews. Additionally, they hired my counter part in as a senior manager which is at least $30k more than what I make. My peer has more experience so I expect that but I feel that I should be paid more, however I don’t want to leave a bad impression… any advice?
