Hi,
I've recently accepted a job offer and I've received the contract to sign. All fine but the notice period has jumped out at me. Once my probabtionary period is complete (6 months) I would need to give them 12 weeks notice if leaving but they would only need to give me 4 weeks notice if making me redundant etc.
Is this normal? Where I currently work it's the other way around, only have to give them 4 weeks notice but they have to give me 12 weeks. Admittedly the company I work for is a large organisation of almost 70k employees and I'm going to a small company so I know there will be differences but would I be unreasonable to ask that they make the terms equitable i.e. If I have to give them 12 weeks they need to give me 12 weeks or meet in the middle somewhere?
