It gives the person time to plan and look for another job. You can say six months and do a heavy job search. Otherwise, you could just be fired that day and without a source of income.

My second job offer was good enough to accept, a nice step up. I accepted, and gave 2 weeks notice (though I was tempted to just “ghost”!!)

Four months after I left the company, it announced the closure of the division that accounted for one-third of the company. Would severance have been nice or better? The world may never know…

Regardless of what is right or wrong, if the CEO wants someone to leave, that employee should leave; otherwise, your life will be hell. Tell the CEO you need at least 6 months to find a job, you require severance pay/separation package, and begin an aggressive job search immediately.

But as the article states, the ball is in the employee’s hands. But any actions recommended should be done ASAP because based on the situation, that position is being eliminated, so leave on your terms with money and ending package in hands.
