RSU / Carry unvested question

For public companies or private companies with vehicle specific carry structures, what happens to the unvested RSU’s or unvested Carry upon layoff (not termination for cause).  From a few calls made around town to Funds, automatic vesting seemed to apply.  But hearing in public stock world the unvested are completely lost.  What’s “market”


Is there a general finance answer to this vs. what you’d see across RE firms equity/debt?

You own your vested stock, unvested can be negotiable, but more likely the company keeps it and just negotiates a severance package/schedule.

I haven't been through it but I'm curious of the severance would equal the unvested but i doubt it.  More likely 6 months of salary if you've been there for years, up to 12 if you are an exec.  This would be for a respectable company.  I've heard of severance being two weeks plus an additional week for years worked at scrub companies.
