Add Comment Question: Hi I am 57 years old and I have worked at my job to close to 33 years. I feel I cannot do the job anymore with all the new technology and changes to my job.. Can I ask for a exit package and what would my chances be of getting one? Answer: While you can ask for a severance package, your employer is under no obligation to provide you with a severance package. Further, if you do express a clear intention to resign, you will certainly not receive a severance package.
