RAed after 22 years of service. They only offered one month severance pay. Is that right or should I be getting more than one month?

Did you sign anything? If you did, then I wouldn't worry about it

I haven’t signed anything

Thank you Manager 1. Who should I talk to about this?

Yes, check with HR and search online as well to see if there is a policy. 1 week is awfully low.

Don't sign shit. Talk to an employment lawyer. I used to work for blue and they pulled this shit all the time. They're so big and poorly managed that you'll get lost in bureaucratic nightmares unless you raise holy hell.

1 month severance has been the policy since 2016. Not sure why this is news to people. It’s terrible and there was a huge outcry when the policy changed, but what are you going to do besides leave before you get cut?

1 month

OP I would ask HR. At the same time my advice is to focus on the next adventure and mentally move on. It happens to the best of us (I went through it before and the outcome was the best thing ...)
I dont want to miss lead you, when I mentioned 1W per year I was referring to what I've seen in the industry but I'm not an IBM employee and I can't confirm what their policy is

Wow. That’s shit. Sorry OP. Make sure you file for unemployment ASAP. It’s yours

My wife currently doesn't have any offer for Germany and might need to search for a job after reaching there. Is it worth? Need your suggestions please.

Hey all! I went through the interviewing process with a company and we had a verbal agreement on X amount of salary per year. They liked me and extended an offer but the offer was for $15K less than what we agreed bc that’s what HR approved for. I was desperate so I took it. Accepting this offer meant that I had to relocate to the other side of the country. Omw that was 2500 miles, I received a call that they rescinded the offer. Is there anything legal that I can do to sue them?
