What Does 1, 2 , 3 means ?

1 - Get $$$ , Get a new life and move on.

2 - Give you some more time , take the money , get a new life and move on

3 - Chained eternally

Pros and Cons
1. You are ensured 1 month per year of service, if you are lucky you get a job in less than a month and you get on with a new career with a lump sum of money as savings. However looking at the economy now , you probably will not be able to find a job so soon. Consider that retrencement now is globally and there are a lot of people that will be eyeing on the same job as you do. And there is a potential that you will also suffer a paycut.

2. You get to have a job and find a new job at the same time , however, severance package may changed and you may not get as much as grp 1. Moreover, who can guarantee they dont change or extend the timeframe when your time is up

3. You dont get the $$$, but u keep your job. Probably wont have a career anymore but if Motorola gets another Steve Jobs, you became the elite group that bring MDB back to life.

Either 1 2 or 3, this is already sealed. Bosses are typing the letters and verdict will be out next week. Whichever one that you get assigned to , take it , accept it and move on. Just make sure you make friends with people in (3) cos you can always come back next time :)
