Should I negotiate my severance? - 20 weeks in

    I was offered 18 weeks of severance after 18 years as an event coordinator, and I have a few days to sign. There is a non-disparagement clause. Did anyone negotiate and succeed?

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

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