Is there any country where offering voluntary severance would break the law? I doubt it. My guess is it's US only because US employees get paid the most.

- toast0 2y agoIt's not about breaking the law or not. It's about what an offer like this will mean that Google will also need to do.
- Arnt 2y agoFUD.
- toast0 2y agoI've had coworkers in Europe that got a layoff notice, but in the notice period, the company wanted to recind the layoff and couldn't. I imagine stuff like that would happen with this kind of offer too.
- Arnt 2y agoYes, once you sign on a dotted line your ability to take it back may be limited. "Didn't mean to offer..." or "had a change of mind about the offer's validity period" may it may not cut it.
