I work for a global US-based company. HR requires 12 weeks notice for people mgrs and 2 weeks notice for everyone else. If proper notice is not given, then no retirement benefits given. My company provides continued medical/dental/life insurance benefits at same cost to retirees until age 65. So, really important to me to follow the rules! Plan to retire early at 62.
Have to admit, it's a daily struggle going to work every day, as I'm past ready for my next phase in life, but need to use next few years to "top off" our retirement finances, especially considering the long-term cost of medical expenses that medicare will not cover for retirees. I am not telling anyone at work of my planned retirement date until it's time to give notice. I'm just hoping I make it to my planned date and retire on my own terms.
