My job will be terminated in 8 weeks if I do not sign the new contract before that. I've worked there for 7 years. The reason I do not want to sign it is because they changed bonus rate lower and I'll get less for sure, also no more negotiation for the contract. Do I get severance pay even the company is very small(only 3 employees)?

Whether or not you are owed severance depends on how much notice you have received. Let's say that you are owed 9 months notice. If you received only 3 months of notice, that means that the company would have to pay you severance equivalent to 6 months. It is important that you call me to discuss well before the end of the 8 weeks.
