> Do you feel the decision to terminate you then may have been linked to your impending protections after two years?
Yes I do because it was so close to the 2 years, and that did leave me feeling slightly cynical.
But I wouldn't call it "protection", because the only benefit would have been a small cash payout, worth a lot to me, but small relative to the company's ongoing salary bill for people staying behind, so easily affordable to them.
That led to financial hardship for a little while, but I recovered, set up as self-employed, and to be honest I was glad of the new freedoms to work on my own projects from then on.
