I can tell you EY is 1 week per year, minimum 4 weeks, max 12 weeks.

EY used to be 2 weeks per year (with no cap that I am aware of), but they changed it this year.

Is this possible?

What leverage do you have?

Can you be more specific?

funny

Ask for more in a diplomatic way. Maybe inject some of a human element into the ask?

My dad was around 60 and he was laid off. My mom was sick at the time and was not working

He asked for more severance and disclosed what he was dealing with and how difficult it was for older people to find work. He was respectful but firm

They gave him more

Not your situation but never hurts to ask with reason for it

However, I do see a compelling future by using my knowledge and skills to open my own firm/business and work less hours as long as I make enough money which is $75k, or if I do work long hours, it’s because I want to.

CTR, contracts and department overhaul

our marketing dept is undergoing a complete overhaul. under old leadership, a $75k 12-mo contract was signed to a marketing group that handles our SEO, blog and everything Google Ads. All things I can and am in training to do. Current CTRs on G ads seem pitiful at no more than 0.75%. My meta ads coast around 4-6%. During this overhaul, would it be wise to not renew our contract, and negotiate for me to take over these roles and leverage a raise?
