“Occurs when an employer makes an employee's working conditions so intolerable that the employee feels compelled to resign.” I’m a senior manager whose role was changed to essentially degrading admin work this year, through no fault of my own — politics rule in toxic workplaces. Anyone else hanging on by a thread with how they are being treated and hoping for a severance package by EOY?

If you are on a PIP, do the bare minimum! You WILL be fired at the end of the PIP.
No, I am not on a PIP but was on my first run at Dell, lol. Fkn Pro support bro...
If you get put on a PIP you are still expected to show up and do your job every day. If you choose to just not come in anymore then, they will just fire you - which is literally what a PIP is for anyways - but you won't get any type of severance, or pay for no shows, so might as well milk them for that check.
If you are put on a PIP, they are basically trying to force you to quit. Your job is 100x harder on a PIP than it should be and are micromanaged like a mo-o. Instead of quitting, continue to go in, do whatever tf you want to do and make sure it's the absolute bare minimum. A paycheck is a paycheck so, make dell pay you out for doing a cr-p job. They legally have to pay you so, do the minimum possible. They plan on firing you anyways so who tf cares at this point?
Go in. Do the bare minimum at most. Just show up and pretend to work in all honesty...
I was on a PIP years ago when i was in the Pro Support dept. and I showed up, did the bare minimum, collected my checks and that was it. They monitored our calls and etc... via a program called (I think it was called anyways) "ICE" and I disabled that, then ran a simple script to prevent an automatic reinstall. So I'd take calls, talk for a while then hang up to make it seem as if i was "working."
Which was hilarious becuase I was called in a week later or so to go over my PIP cr-p and they were baffled as to how and why they had no records of anything after xyz date. I told them idfk, just doing my job bros. They didn't have an answer because they had no idea how or why it wasn't being tracked so, that was that.
A week before I was to fail my PIP I quit. Applied for unemployment and received it. Got paid for an extra check as well because my manager was "fond" of me lmfao.
Long story short, drag that sh-t out and milk it. Do the minimum to stay on the PIP and then when it's coming to an end, just quit. BUT, do it professionally. As in tell your manager first because then you might not get unemployment.
Keeping that severance..
If someone gets displaced say on Tuesday, August 19, does that mean they can interview for a job but tell the prospective employer they can start on October 20th? 61 days after the displacement..
Restricted Shares and termination of employment
Hi I understand from reading bp share policy, upon termination of bp employment, bp has discretion to allow its ex-employee to keep the restricted shares (if they are a good leaver etc). Does anyone know who's decision it is to allow the employee to keep the shares? Any other insights as to what process / considerations for the decision. I am getting no information from my line manager.
Where's the severance pay?
So Cargill let go of employees at the beginning of December (same as every other cargill employee affected by the layoffs) and we still haven't seen a single dollar to our name? Thank you for letting us spend the holidays without any money and stressing. Really putting people first huh? The teams are more worried about their christmas events than making the process smoother. Please don't think about working for Cargill Costa Rica, they are all talk and don't live up to their values.

Can i negotiate severance package ?
I am part of RIF about 2 weeks back and the health care insurence company they gave 6 weeks off Severance package.. but we all know it’s a pre planned one they hired in india last year October and forced to give knowledge transfer and then followed by poor rating with no comments or reason given and now they announced layoffs. I am not convinced it’s a RIF as even after layoff team mates from offshore forcing and sending messages for KT . Can I challenge as it was unfair with HR dept as I deserve better Severance package. I disagreed with rating as no written or verbal reason given for poor performance and after rejecting rating still no reply from my manager. #layoff #severance

Chevron is sending out notices of termination this week at the SJVBU. At this business unit more females, relative to total males.
Notifications of employees in-scope for the RAE (Resource adjustment Exercise) were sent via email on Thursday. Many females relative to males are a included in of this exercise. CVX intends to pay out for 60 days as if employees are still workers on payroll but the employee technically no longer has a job at Chevron. After that a severance might be offered. Once an employee sign the severance, the right to sue for discrimination is gone. Contact an attorney before you sign any severance. The majority in RAE are female.

Severance and taxes
Just wondering about the tax implications of a lump sum severance payment in 2015- is there any way to delay payment until 2016? If I get laid off mid-Oct, then receive 60 days pay under WARN. Afterwards, I would have to sign a release to receive severance. How long will they give me to consider and sign the release? If 30 days, then I would delay signing until early January, deferring the income to 2016..

Severance calculation.
After checking the info on my Benefits Connections/Retirement/Severance page on the advice of a manager, I noticed that the weekly regular earnings figure used to calculate my estimated severance is about 7% lower than my regular weekly salary noted on my pay check stub. This results in a lower estimate of severance than my own calculation, based on my pay statement. The difference is several thousand dollars. Several colleagues I have checked with report the same apparent discrepancy. Has anyone else noticed this, does anyone understand the basis for the difference, or is this an error?

@IWV5EPo-ucl that sounds just like following the rules under the Warn Act.
They could just give you 60 days worth of pay. And those 30 days are not severance, that what legally you must be paid.
Many places by law must give you a weeks notice for every year you work notice of your job being terminated. Most companies just pay you one week for every year worked, rather than give you notice. >The WARN act of course will trump the one week per year if you have worked less than 8 years at a facility that is reducing the workplace by more than 33%.
Severance is money to compensate you till you find another job. Usually the Severance is exhausted before finding another job. Severance is a different can of worms.

Monsanto Severance Package
Does anyone know what kind of severance package we will be getting? I think it's been a while since Monsanto has had layoffs so I am not sure if they were changing policies on Severance Pay. I joined in 2012 but I heard that during the downturn the company had to let some people go but severance payments were pretty solid - not sure if this right or wrong but that's what I heard.

Laid off 1/15/2016
My department took a 60 percent cut. I was one of them. Standard #severance package: 1 week for each year worked + insurance till end of month. Plus unused vacation.
Now that the shock is over, time to relax a bit. The past few years have been hectic. It'll be nice to rest a while.
