If the employee has been with company for 10 years and transferred to Cognizant, do the employee has option to reject the offer?
Will FIS pay severance?
or will it be considered as at will resignation?

@c1 Considering the “offer” we were sent contains language where 2028 is the beginning of adhering to Cognizant accruals, best guess is no. I am assuming our vacation accruals are only being offered as a small carrot. We are being fired by FIS, so our tenure has ended and another “begins” at Cognizant.
Does anyone know if a transferring employees’ length of service would be carried over to Cognizant?
any update severance? will fis or cognizant pay severance.
looks like the overall game is to avoid severance on Riffs.. instead of direct riffs they pass ball to so called partner vendor court ...
The US Severance Policy specifically states in section B.6 that you are not eligible for severance from FIS if your position is moved to a contractor vendor and the vendor extends an employment offer to you.
@OP great question. I have over 25 years with fis and expect nothing if I reject the offer. Also am afraid to ask so as not to raise any red flags.
If they don’t accept the offer they become unemployed
