Today, I received the unfortunate news that I was being laid off from my position after five years with the company. My last working day is tomorrow, and to add insult to injury, I was only offered one month of extra pay instead of severance. This was supposedly due to my tenure, but it feels inadequate. When I asked about being compensated for my two-month notice period, the HR representative initially tried to persuade me otherwise. Eventually, she raised her voice, stating, "My job is not to help YOU; my job is to just communicate with you." It was quite shocking. She then threatened that if I didn’t submit my resignation, she would terminate my employment and mark it as a performance issue in my records, even though my role was affected by company restructuring. I felt completely disrespected by the whole interaction.
