I'm noticing more jobs that do not offer (or fail to mention) having any severence pay. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU SIGN!
Also, it seems that more than a few schools offer salaries like 2.1 or something, but a lower severence like 1.9.
Weird. |

yeah that extra 200k is gonna ruin you financially.
If they give you housing allowances or other allowances, it usually isn't included in your severence. |

| The severance is by law, I believe. They can try to add a clause in the contract that makes your wage higher, which in fact, is the severance spread out over 12 months. I don't know if thats legal. But then again, don't expect to get a fair shake in Korea, as far as the law goes. |
