my worker Misclassification as Independent Contractor: Gender Pay Gap experience

Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

asked to sign non-compete after 3 years. I've been dealing with this for about 16 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 3 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

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

Following this thread — Commenting so I can find this later. Very relevant to my situation.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's attorney general? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
