Private Company Severance Considerations

There are several ways to compare severance packages between private companies including emerging pre-IPO companies, and public companies. While public companies routinely provide severance protection for their senior executives, private companies are lagging in arranging this protection. It is particularly important that private companies provide severance protection for newly hired executives, and when a company is beginning a strategic review where parts of the organization (or the whole company) may be sold or merged. Adequate severance protection will allow senior management to focus on business needs and goals, and it does not result in an expense — unless needed, of course.
