<prompt> Human: I was speaking to my significant other today about work. Her company is downsizing and changing direction. Her boss gave her 24 hours to decide one of two options:1 Transition out of the company in a positive way2 Commit to the teams new mission with the knowledge that he still might be asked to let people go down the line anyways.To her it seems like shes being asked to quit now or get fired later. Can they force her to quit without severance pay? I think they may try to claim that because theyre giving her 3 months she will have plenty of time to find a new job. Any one have any other general thoughts on the situationbeen there before? Shes freaking out and I want to help, but Im a grad student and havent ever dealt with this situation.Thanks in advance for anything.Assistant: Stay on and start the search for another job.Human: I thought that to. My fear for her then is that she finds another job, puts in her two weeks, and all of the sudden shes seen as going back on her commitment to the new direction of the company. Im worried that would threaten her reputation in the field.  <response>: Dude relax, she owes nothing to her current company that is not invested in her.
