A lot of you will be losing your job thanks to AI so I figured I might as well make a thread outlining how to stand up for yourself, leverage the law to your benefit, and how to negotiate as much severance as possible when the axe falls on you. This thread will save you from missing out on thousands of dollars when the time comes to negotiate with these assholes.
In addition to helping you squeeze more money out of a severance package, it will also help you recognize the patterns and tactics employers use to F*ck over their employees. I've been on all sides of the battlefield as an individual contributor, manager, and biz owner. I've seen the playbook and it's always the same with these corporations.
I'm going to update this thread with new posts when I have time. Arm yourself with this knowledge to protect yourself and your family.
p.s. for those of you who think you're too good for a job, remember that the founders of Uber created the company after hours as a night and weekend project
