I recently found myself in a tough situation after being laid off from a major top 500 company. They offered me a severance package of just four weeks, but it came with the condition that I sign away all my rights. I'm currently trying to figure out if it's possible to negotiate for a better deal. I've heard from others that if you're in a special position, like an executive, you might have more leverage, but as a regular employee, it seems like options are limited. I'm also part of a protected class in tech and under 40, so I'm wondering if that might play a role in negotiations. Has anyone had success pushing back on their severance offers? I'm looking for any advice or experiences that could help me in this situation.
