In California, you don't need to construct a dismissal. It's an "at-will" employment state, which means you can be fired at any time without any reason or any reason (so long as if there's a reason, it's not because of a minor list of things.)
In practice what this means is, in tech at least, you're thrown a nickle or two in exchange for an agreement, among other things, that you won't sure the company for violating your rights later.
- BoorishBears 4y agoYou don't need to but companies would still much rather you walk away from an HR perspective. That "minor list of things" you allude to becomes very problematic for the company if someone even tries to claim it your underlying motivation was tied to it. So people willingly leaving because of a blanket decree removes that aspect entirely.
