Unless you’re MD/President level or hire, you’re never going to get a timed guarantee. And even then it might be touchy. But, you can negotiate severance at that level. 6 months is common, from what I hear. Some people have negotiated 12 months, but I imagine that’s less common now.
Higher*, damnit.
you can try but as a junior/midlvl strat, ive never been successfully. nyc here & only been with agencies — both indie & public holding co / big, mid, boutique.
6 mo severance is typically reserved for very high level. And it’s because finding a new full time job for $300k takes so long. Anyone asking at a lower level runs the risk of looking like they are used to getting let go, or don’t plan to stay.
