I know in situations like this, people usually wonder about severances (I know I do). Here is the link to the latest Windstream Severance Plan in PDF form for those wondering what is being awarded.
My only question is, is Windstream honoring this plan or has something changed in the meantime?
I was let go in the September Rif , they paid me 6 days from the thursday i was let go, then 3 weeks remaining vacation, then 12 weeks severence totaled out at 16 weeks full pay. was covered under the insurance threw oct 31st ,, Dont let yourself be discouraged.. There is life after Windstream.. i'm working again..
The way it worked for me, and I was laid off on a Thursday pay week like this as well. I received my next regular check, then one more "normal check after that, which was my official termination date. Then 1 more weeks pay, instead of 2, and my remaining vacation. After that I received 6 more checks sans deductions, except taxes = 12 weeks.
The updated offer laid out below does correspond to my email offer today.
That's not the most up to date. It's 4 weeks of pay up through 2 years, 6wks for 3yrs. 8 wks for 4yrs, 10 for 5yrs and anything over that is at the max of 12weeks.
Forgot the link, sorry:
