Here's NBCU's severance offer for employees who don't want to return to the office

"NBCU employees were instructed to contact their HR manager if they aren't willing to work in the company's offices from Monday to Thursday, starting January 5. According to internal communications viewed by Business Insider, those who ask their manager about the severance package by October 3 will get the following offer: eight weeks of their base salary and continued healthcare coverage (medical, dental, and vision) for three months after their exit. Plus, they'll remain eligible for their full bonus."

"This severance offer is available for all NBCU employees VP level or below who are based in the US and are working hybrid. They will have to remain on the active payroll through December 31 and work to transition their responsibilities to other employees as directed by their manager. Notably, NBCU's severance offer isn't based on an employee's tenure or length of employment. Severance packages are often based on the number of years an employee has worked."

NBCUniversal set a four-day-per-week return-to-office requirement beginning January 5, 2026, and offered an opt-out severance package. Employees unwilling to comply were told to contact HR; those who inquire by October 3 will be offered eight weeks of base salary, three months of continued medical, dental, and vision coverage after exit, and eligibility for their full bonus. The voluntary exit assistance applies to US-based hybrid employees at VP level and below, who must remain on payroll through December 31 and complete transition work as directed. The severance is not tied to tenure.
