Volunteer Severance Package -VS- Severance Package in Novmember

It seems that they will be covering our healthcare costs (by paying the difference on COBRA) starting from the severance package in September. Does anyone know if we will receive the same healthcare support if we get laid off in November? From what I've heard, they typically cover it for about a month or two after being laid off.

Also, why wouldn't they promote the subsidized COBRA plan to encourage people to consider this option if the November severance package is less favorable?

@ay HR said in the VH meeting today that November would get the same severance package, don't spread misinformation if you don't know the answer. Not making the situation easier for anyone.

No way. Best offer is this one. If you want until November you should assume less medical and no pro rated bonus. Expect lots of tear in November when you get laid off with less, they gave you a chance.

The severance will probably be the same terms for the layoffs.
