What's the offer?

How long have you been there? Ask for 3 months pay.

Are you considering suing the firm for wrongful termination, discrimination, or the like? You give up or significantly impede your ability to sue if you sign.

You're not closet trans?

which firm?

Series B start up

If you don’t sign for 30 days then technically you get 2 months pay so don’t sign immediately either way I’d imagine is best answer?

So I am right? Either termination date is on day of receiving offer or termination date is one month later, for which you get paid as normal then after you get your severance package

OP, severance isn't a right or a legal requirement. So you can ask for me, but they can just as easily reduce it or give you nothing (unless they have a policy in place that outlines severance).

I sent my resume/portfolio after and haven’t even gotten a reply that she received it, and I’ve followed up. I’ve been getting recruiter messages offering salaries up to 120k for copy/senior copy roles (which surprised me) so I gave 110-120 as a range on the call. She hesitantly said she thought 115 would be OK. But wondering if the salary could be the issue? Thought?
