Hypothetical question

I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance just saying.

gig company reclassifying workers. I've been dealing with this for about 4 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 9 years. My position is non-exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

Illustrative response

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.

I went through something similar. The waiting period for the labor board was about 3 months.

Have you filed a complaint with the labor board yet? That's usually the first step.
