For those who are finishing up soon or recently finished a contract, I'd like to know who did and didn't have problems getting their severance pay this year, and where you work (hagwon, public school, university).
Just out of interest.
edit: If you were fired or quit before your 11th month please don't respond, I'm interested in those who finished a complete contract. I think if you were fired IN your eleventh month, that pretty much counts as not getting your severance though, don't you think?

I got my severance payments for each year so far.
1st time was the last day of my first year at the hagwon. Second time was not as prompt but I did get it. How they do the calculation however seemed to change from the first year to the second.
Got it so I'm happy.
Cheers |

Always got mine too.
My favorite pay was when I finished my first hawgwon gig. I got my final pay+severence+housing deposit back+re-embursed sick days (never took any)
Back then it was all cash too...I had a BRICK of 10,000 bills, that was a great feeling. |

I think I got most of it, but it's hard to tell, since there are no pay slips. I don't have a clue what was deducted, what was missed, if anything. Except that I am still waiting for the air ticket...........
Anyway, it's all behind me nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww  |

When I was finishing at my hagwon I got the "we don't know if we can pay you" talk.
I worked a year and got paid.
I renewed for 3 months. Then I signed for 15 months beyond the 3.
9 months into the 15 I wanted out. I gave proper legal notice.
When I finished I had put in a full 12 month second year.
I deserved severance.
They didn't want to pay.
I got it.
Cheap scum though for trying. |

Last year I got it all without any hassles on the very last day of my contract. Because my previous boss had been such an SOB about pretty much everything else it was a pleasant surprise.
This year I can't help but wonder, as my current boss paid my salary this month with her credit card. |
