> Coinbase was also extremely generous with severance. 12 weeks plus two for every one year at the company, I think. 3-3.5 months resignation/notice period is hardly worth mentioning, pretty standard in Europe, 2 or 3 months being the usual minimum. Sure, no need to come to work and still getting salary is nice, but in the end you will get same money by European standards. And for mass layoffs standards are even stricter, so this seems like completely ordinary layoff by European standards. It's like saying 2 years warranty is extremely generous and great, while it's the legal minimum in Europe nobody would bother to talk about, heck even 3 years feels pretty mediocre nowadays. Half of my recently bought things like washing machine, headphones or hair trimmer have 5 years warranty (after registration). > I've had the experience of being let go without notice and without severance. That just means you sign crappy contracts, have very low standards and don't value yourself, if any company does this to you after probation period. And it's possibly illegal even in United Slaveries of America. > Three and a half months of dev salary is pretty incredible. 14 weeks ain't 3.5 months any way you look at it, at best it's a few days over 3 months. Originally mentioned 12 weeks are not even 3 months.
