Is that not your dream? Why work for years when you can receive years worth of pay in a single paycheck?
A good layoff package can advance retirement age significantly.
- bagels 3y agoIt's more typically a month or two of pay.
- LargeTomato 3y agoI only pocket about 20% of my paycheck after mortgage and other expenses. 4 paychecks is 20 months of extra pay.
- geraldwhen 3y agoIt’s not where I work. The packages are truly envious!
- coredog64 3y agoPer Blind, the first round is getting two months severance plus two months of garden leave to allow WARN Act compliance.
- bagels 3y agoYeah, my point being that years of severance pay is an extreme outlier.
- winrid 3y agoI have worked at software places where it was 2 weeks severance, even if on family leave.
- sgift 3y agoPersonally, I would prefer to stay as long as I can in one place, and work on something I really like until retirement. But, I admit, these kind of jobs are rather rare in the modern economy (even though I'm not in the US and from my experience it's a bit better for someone with my wishes here in Germany).
