Hypothetical question

Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

employer withholding tips. I've been dealing with this for about 3 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 6 years. My position is exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?
