I was laid off too

Ask for 10 weeks and ask for it to be paid out biweekly so you can keep your health insurance during this period

If you get a lump sum, your benefits will expire at the end of the month

There usually a portal like Deloitteforce or ask your pm

Was let go earlier this year from D. Just signed last week with a new firm with a nice bump in title and comp. Good luck OP, take time for yourself then grind it out for your next gig. You’ll find greener pastures :)

Will be joining a mid-level player strong in my industry. Left D as C2 and coming in with almost 40% increase in base to SC1 with $125k TC.

Be the squeaky wheel. Ask for what you want in a rational manner like presenting the case to a client. They don't like conflict and will likely acquiesce to make it go away.

I am sorry :/

I was also laid off mid March from Deloitte Digital. They offered 5 weeks of pay plus all PTO cashed. Insurance vakit till end of month. I tried to negotiate for more but they didn't budge. I was shocked and couldn't wrap my head around it at that time. Under stress, accepted their offer.

OP DM me if you need to talk.
