Heard Halliburton maximum amount of weeks that it pays as severance pay to its laid off employees is 13 weeks. While Bakers maximum weeks for severance pay is 26 weeks.

Sole income - condolences on your being laid off. Was laid off from Baker back in 2009, myself. Your severance pay should come by the same method as your paychecks used to come. If they paid you by check then they will mail you a check. If you had direct deposit then it will be electronically deposited. Either way it will take Baker a week or two to process it and actually pay you. Baker's standard severance package is one week of pay at your current pay rate per year of working for the company. Therefore you should receive somewhere around 9 weeks of pay.
You survived her for 9 years, you should be having no problems finding jobs elsewhere. Good luck and Godspeed.
Also the hr lady didn't know shit. I asked what was the unemployment insurance was for each two weeks, she didn't know it. I asked her about the severence and she didn't know it. All her ass knew was my name and I was getting canned.
Cuz my black ass was in shock. Hr sets the whole ordeal to put you in a shock and March you out.
Dude, if you were truly laid off then why in the heck did you not ask HR this question at that time?
