Redundancy and Handover
Discussion
So I've been made redundant after 21 years which I accept and will get a decent payout. The last thing before I leave is to handover to those that remain. Next week I've been tasked with handing over in detail everything I know about the product and customers. I'm I two minds to hand them my laptop and tell them to do one and would if if I didnt have so much to lose. The expectation feels like I'm leaving of my own accord or I'm moving within the company which clearly I'm not. Having never been in this situation before what is a reasonable handover?
So I've done two of the three days they want and whilst I've probably done more than the minimum they would accept it's clear they haven't got a clue and will be floundering on Monday. I now feel better about it and would felt bad if I'd just walked away. Doesn't make it any easier after 20 years though.
So it's all done and I'm now officially unemployed or will be Tuesday. I spent the last 3 days giving them everything they asked. I left with all professionalism intact and they have my number if they need me, for a price obviously. What I couldn't believe was that one of them left without saying thanks, goodbye or shaking my hand.
Thanks all for the encouragement to do the best thing for me.
