During these tough economic times many employers are facing job cuts and layoffs. They are giving their employees an option to face their layoff with a severance package. Depending on the severance amount or conditions of the offer many employees are reconsidering taking the agreement in the beginning. If the conditions of the severance are unsatisfactory to the employee or do not meet their approval then they do not have to accept it.
If you feel that you are getting the short end of the stick try and speak with your company representatives and convince them to reconsider. Hopefully they can give you a better offer. In order to receive a better deal you must first convince them of all of your past achievements and contributions to the company. They should reconsider and give you a deal based on your past value. Remember a severance package should be agreed upon by both parties. After you receive your severance your next step is to start searching for jobs, preferably online at sites like employflorida.com.
