Im preparing to give my resignation and wondering if I will get paid for my unused vacation or should I take it before I leave?

Take it, if you resign you get nothing.

Yes, you will be paid for any unused vacation time. Good time to go as we will be laying off again in a few months.

You will not get your vacation if you resign. The law only requires them to give it to you if you leave involuntarily.

Anyone I know who resigned has gotten their vacation paid. You need to make it clear in your resignation letter that your want to take the vacation as the last 3-4 weeks of your time. IE you retire Jan 1, take your 4 weeks vacation, and you are paid until Feb 1

That is not getting paid for your vacation it is taking it before you leave. If they paid you for it, you would get the cash for those days as you walk out the door.

In my experience, Novartis paid for accrued vacation. The money was calculated and paid to me as check during the exit interview.

They will pay for unused vacation, because that is vacation earned. Some people are really stupid. I left 3 companies and they all paid my vacation. It's mine and I earned them....

This is very true. When I resigned I had almost 4 weeks. I got a check covering about a week and a half worth. I called HR who promised to follow-up, and of course, nothing came of it.

If you are in the U.S. It's law, you must be paid your vacation time. You should verify how much you have accrued in whatever system you are using (not the spread sheet in your managers office). This does not include personal days.
