What happens if you just decided not to move? That voluntarily leave would need to become a firing with notice pay and severance.

- leetcrew 2y agoyou would have the opportunity to argue whether you were fired for cause (which determines eligibility for unemployment insurance). in general that's hard to win if you just don't show up to your assigned work location, but there may be grounds to argue that mandatory relocation beyond a certain distance constitutes constructive dismissal. but notice pay and severance are not mandatory for at will employees. the company basically gets to decide whether it's worth paying you not to sue them.
- saghm 2y agoI imagine they'd just stop paying you and not give you any severance, putting the ball in your court to initiate any legal actions to try to force them to pay severance.
