Does anyone have the downloaded doc showing 2 weeks severance before they changes it to 1 week on Feb 1st. Funny the effective date still shows 2018.

Yes, the 2018 policy was 2 weeks per year. The version of the 2018 policy that was provided to me this month says "updated, restated effective January 24. 2024" and yes, it now says 1 week per year, maximum 26 weeks. However, I remember that the policy was officially changed from 2 weeks to 1 week per year about 2 years ago; unfortunately, I didn't print that email. I was just laid off after 38 years, so of course I contacted my lawyer about this. I was told that there is nothing I can do about it....
Never trust a company, but in particular, never trust a company that's constantly harping on about how much it cares and how much it wants employees engaged and involved in extra social activities at work. I've worked for some iteration of a company currently owned by Nielsen for more than 20 years, and through numerous owners, Nielsen has by far been the shittiest and shiestiest, despite all their efforts to look like good guys. And listen, I'm a bleeding heart leftist to my core, I do value diversity and inclusion and mental health, so my criticism isn't coming from that angle. These clowns are just dirty frauds trying to look cute.
the self-care part was rich. You're the ones causing us the stress! I have a great idea how to reduce my stress over "uncertainty" maybe don't ship my job overseas.
Don't worry, guys. "Innovation" is why they're fu--ing us! Honestly, such a relief. And they want us to prioritize self-care!
it's in the new Nielsen Nsider. Reduction to 1 week pay instead of 2 confirmed
It is 2 weeks, well was for me today. Not sure where this 1 week rumour is coming from
If you search on Nielsen Now for severance, it still has the doc showing two weeks per year for a max of 26 weeks for <$200k. I didn't see anything with the reduced rate
