Exactly this. My previous employer announced an end to wfm followed shortly by some people I knew getting warned that they may be laid off. But enough people quit that nobody got laid off.

did the people who quit get reasonable severance packages? If so, were they reasonable compared to if they had been laid off?

I don't think you are entitled to a severance for quitting.

[–] lagomorphlecture@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

You don't get severance if you quit.
