Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia
Pregnant
I have a friend that is in her first pregnancy trimester.
She has worked at her current company for several years.
Beginning of this year they were advised their GA location was closing down and business was being transferred to India. Her pregnancy came unexpected.
What can she expect? She was told she would receive a severance package in August. Should she renegotiate the amount?

Re: Pregnant
You are not asking a legal question. Sure, she can attempt to negotiate. The question is what bargaining power she has. They could tell her if she is not happy with the amount they are giving her, she can take nothing. If it is a large company and office, it is safe to assume they have a set amount.
