No severance on an office shutdown? That’s ridiculous, but I doubt illegal in an at-will state like NY. Regardless, your company sucks if they don’t pay out. Most packages I’ve seen are 2 weeks pay for 1st 2-3 years + 1 week pay for each year after that.

I worked there for almost 9 years...

Ask for at least 9 weeks pay, one per year. But I would argue you could ask for way more than that

Maybe start at 9 months and settle for 9 weeks. watch their heads explode
