[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is op. This SUCKS. Im feeling defeated and depressed and imposter syndrome is eating me alive. The pip made no reference to a severance package and nothing was discussed about it. I think the posters who said it’s a 60 day runway and then they will talk to you about severance are wrong, I think this 60 day window is the severance period basically. [/quote]

[b]I would be really surprised if there is no severance because the 3 months paid six months on website is market rate for large firms. [/b] Maybe that drops off in the amlaw 100-200 range and maybe in the bottom of that amlaw 100 range.  Even my cheap firm with pay compression gave that severance.[/quote]

No, the 60 days (allegedly called PIP but no PIP presentation, so no PIP) is what the firm is giving her to find another job and get out.  that is it.  Now if she's still there in 60 days with no new job in hand, then they might discuss something else like severance.  Remember these firm lawyers are smart.  Why would they give more when they don't have to? they are telling her to find a new job now.[/quote]

No --the 60 days is a gift.  Then the 3 months.  If it is really Biglaw and not some big law firm that is not really BigLaw.  OP -- at Davis Polk, Wilmer, Covington, Paul Weiss type firm or Greenberg?[/quote]
