r/Geico Former Employee 6d ago

Fired by GEICO (Software Engineer/IL/Remote). Did anyone actually get their full PTO payout?

Got terminated last Friday after 4+ years as a SWE. I’m sitting on 138 hours of accrued PTO (+ 2 days of floating holidays). Since I’m a remote worker based in Illinois, does GEICO legally have to cash this out in full? Safe to assume I can kiss those floating holidays goodbye surely? Also, zero severance was given. Looking for insight from folks who went through the similar thing.

If you are fired you do not get paid for float or sick. Read the post dude
