Really disappointed with EY. Received news that a peer was let go for performance, but its completely evident this was bs. When people say the firm has no loyalty- believe it. Make sure to have your affairs in order- all expenses/benefits utilized, performance reviews saved and documented, client contacts saved (when applicable), knowledge of benefits transferral, anything else you can think of. Do not think for one second that you aren’t expendable.

You generally don’t get severance for performance (aka being fired)

Difference between performance separation and “for cause” termination. Performance separation still typically qualifies for severance when “for cause” does not.
