Not me but others at my agency got 3 weeks. No vacation pay since we just switched to “unlimited” policy so they don’t need to pay out.

Wow...good luck with whatever comes next, AD1. Sorry to hear it hit like that.

2 weeks. Holidays paid out bc it’s law. That’s it (I’m mid level, title on here is 2 years old)

Nope, it’s not. Had to get a lawyer to negotiate rights to display work for projects I was on at the time so I could pivot to freelance and they wouldn’t budge on the severance.

One month pay. One month health subsidy. One month in some career site.

Our agency got nothing. Healthcare completely cut and no vacation days paid out. Work at a small shop and wish I had stayed in the holding company safety net so I at least could have gotten some kind of severance.
