Severance package potentially would include salary, partial bonus, immediate vesting of RSU, employment search assistance, healthcare PLUS access to employment insurance. Legal fees would not be more than that.

Even if severance received was $100K but legal fees cost $99K, you’re still ahead. Does not matter most went to lawyers.

Lawyers wouldn’t be expensive anyway (probably less the $10K). Not even a lawsuit, it’s just assistance negotiating.

I know someone who went this route and it didn’t really beat out a sympathy severance (a lot of people who are fired for low performance are technically laid off since it lowers the risks for the company).

It was like an 8 weeks severance minus legal fees.
