I was offered 7 weeks of severance after 7 years as a graphic designer, and I have a few days to sign. There are 7 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. There is a non-disparagement clause. Did anyone negotiate and succeed?

I asked for two more weeks and a neutral reference. They agreed to the reference and added a week.

An hour with an employment lawyer cost me a small fee and made me feel much safer about signing.
