I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

mass layoff without WARN Act notice. I've been dealing with this for about 5 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 10 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.
