That's a layoff. There is a policy and I know you get at least 2 weeks but think it depends on years at company.

Yes..
.severance varies by level and time in acn. Check the policies..its all there

Depends. If it is an official "layoff" due to market conditions, yes. That was happening towards the end of 2015, and I know some people who got severance.

However, if projects won't staff you when there are roles available, you can get terminated for cause. That does not come with a severance.

But, both are actually rare. Keep working the staffing process. Talk to your TFS and CC a couple of times a week and be applying for roles every day to show you are trying. Be willing to do just about any role, and you will be fine.

Only if you are in the bench because you rolled off a climate change denier's project.

Good information, thanks

It's not that rare in Strategy, up or elsewhere... I think it's 2 weeks per year of service
