If you’re expecting to get out-counseled after a year-end review, is it better to secure an outside offer early so you can leave on your own terms, or to wait so you can get severance?

As a business analyst I don’t see severance in your future. What are the signs you’re getting coached out this early?

It is always nice to check with job market so you will know your value. Severance is not that important unless you have a long tenure. Try to get an offer with more money - severance is not that important in that case.

Your job hunting goes much better of you are employed. That alone is worth the trade off in severance that you would get

Severance is for Layoffs not out counciling

Yeah severance is based on years in the company so no use of it really unless it's at least 3-4 years. And even then they can come up with many legal reasons why you're not eligible for severance. I definitely know ppl who transitioned to another part of the company and doing great there, especially since the salary differential isn't much at the analyst level. If not, hope your next adventure is better. Many of us have been there before and lived thru it just fine

If you are fired for bad performance, I’m not sure you get severance....

Go on your own terms. There is no severance if you are counselled our.

Great- thanks for the advice everyone!
