I can guide you on what to look out for, but I can't review specific contracts. Here are some key points to consider:
- Severance Pay: Is it fair and clearly outlined?
- Benefits: Will health insurance continue temporarily?
- Non-Compete Clause: Are there restrictions on where you can work next?
- Rehire Eligibility: Can you be rehired later?
- Claims Release: Are you waiving any legal rights?
Do any of these areas raise concerns for you in your contract?
