| Feb 23, 2018 at 16:02 | comment | added | DLS3141 | @Isaiah3015 The question boils down to policy and how would they know. It’s not illegal to have two jobs, but it may be against company policy. Then it’s a matter of the consequence for violating policy. About the worst they could do is fire OP without severance. | |
| Feb 23, 2018 at 15:55 | comment | added | Isaiah3015 | @DLS3141,It's not unemployment vs severance. Severance package (as per described by OP) is only granted by his employer if you can't find a new position within the company. Assuming, you are able to find a new position internally or externally, you no longer qualify. The question here is that, what trouble could OP face if he stays at his job, run out his time, get the severance while he works at another company. | |

| Feb 22, 2018 at 14:25 | comment | added | Isaiah3015 | I really don't know what I'm misinterpreting here based on what you wrote. If you can clarify what you meant and edit your post on specifically what state in your severance contract + new job, then maybe more people will be able to provide an answer you are looking for. | |
| Feb 21, 2018 at 23:28 | comment | added | user83155 | wow, you read a lot of implicit meaning into that. I will just tell you that your interpretation does not match what I meant with those words. | |
| Feb 21, 2018 at 23:18 | comment | added | Isaiah3015 | This is from your post: " During this reassignment period, your work job is to find another job, hopefully with this company but also maybe external depending on everyones needs. If you haven't found another internal position at the end of reassignment, then you are let go with a small severance pay." It's pretty clear what your company intends. GL | |
| Feb 21, 2018 at 23:15 | comment | added | user83155 | Sorry I don't agree. I think you are conflating severance with unemployment. The severance pay is to keep laid off employees from suing. It doesn't come from the government or tax payers, it comes from the private company. Unemployment pay is for people who have a hard time finding a new job. | |
