Severance offer, what should I ask for?, paralegal here

    I was offered 6 weeks of severance after 6 years as a paralegal, and I have a few days to sign. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I do not want to leave money on the table. What did you ask for?

    Ask for the offer in writing and do not sign on the spot. A day or two to think is normal.

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 9 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
