The company that laid me off is paying me 4 months of wages without any work, this is the severance package I get in exchange for them not being forced to try to find me another suitable position in the company or "prove" that there no tasks at the company that I could do with my existing skill set (that's how the law works where I live).
Was it really worth it?
My point was it's not dumb, it's malicious and self serving.
It's not worth it.
Are you in the states? I'm surprised you have those protections.
No, Sweden
