What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Masschusetts
I have been offered a severance package because my job is being eliminated or another position in the company that is a demotion, but with the same rate of pay. Can I collect unemployment? This has created stressful health issues and I am very uncomfortable at work. They gave me a week to make a decision and said there will never be an opportunity for advancement for me in this company and after nine years I have performed this job without any performance issues they say that I and unable to meet performance expectations. My performance review was a month ago and nothing was mentioned. I am so confused and need advice.
