Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's a labor law thing.

I'm your run of the mill srSWE just like them, they'd just been around 5-15 years. I've been non-exempt my entire career as a neteng/syseng/swe, etc. Do you mean something else? I assumed it was something like X amount of mgrs/VPs on staff = some benefit (taxes, etc).

Verizon paid me $4k (business customer svc rep) to go away which I put towards my first startup/learning to code. It was a fun place to work with some great people and it’s hard to beat getting paid to go away(union).

My heart wasn't in this job or profession, but I do thank Verizon immensely for being a great company to work for and treating their employees very well!
