Severance meant more than salary: insurance, leave and stock

This thread asked people in India what their severance packages actually included. The original poster described a friend’s package: two months of base pay, an extra week per year of service, earned-leave cash-out, some upcoming stock vesting, placement help and a year of health insurance. Replies described very different outcomes. One commenter reported three months of garden leave and six months of gross pay including notice. Another reported one month of severance at a Series A startup. These are individual accounts, including a second-hand account from the original poster. They do not establish what another employer must provide.
