Are there any advantages / disadvantages to getting layed off versus resigning?
And is it better to lay-off someone or ask them to resign?
I know some folks quit out of disgust and usually may not get a severance package while a lay off may come with a severance package.
It may even be illegal to ask someone to resign. But as an employer if the employee offered to resign with a severance packeage, would it make any difference to either the employee or the employer?
I also suppose under some circumstances things may be negotiable. What has been your experience? On both sides … as employer and as employee.
Thanks!
