Add Comment Question: After working for a company for 25 years, with nothing but very good to exceptional reviews throughout my employment, I was told that they want me to take a position of lesser pay grade which would have a 20% pay cut. If I refuse to take this other job, I will need to resign. I do not like either of these options. I have a new boss who for some reason doesn't like me even though I have not done anything to warrant this. If I don't take the lower paying job, am I entitled to a decent severance package?
