I was dismissed without cause after 4 months of employment. I left my previous career of16 years for this opportunity. I was assured on multiple occasions that this was a full time permanent position. Within a week of starting this opportunity my mom passed away and I only took 2 days off. My Director advised she was retiring within 2 months of starting. A week before she retired they finally told me who I was going to report to. Again I searched for confidence that my role was stable. I returned from Christmas vacation to my new Director. He treated me poorly but I was willing to work through it. 3 weeks later I was called in to a private room and told my skill set was either not required or not a match. Unfortunately the letter they provided did not say the reason they gave in that meeting on Monday January 25th. They have given me 2 months severance plus benefits. My question now is that seems like a lot of severance to let me go without cause. I am wondering what else they are withholding from me and what my possibilities are for handling this situation. In addition I had a miscarriage which I took 1 day off work for. I went to work and delivered my project deliverables as required. I pushed to be there 100% as I was a new employee and feel that I was not able to grieve the loss of my mother or my pregnancy for fear of losing my job and now I have.

Thank you for your assistance
