Hypothetical question

Quick background on my situation in Georgia — any input appreciated.

pregnant employee pushed to resign. I've been dealing with this for about 7 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.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

The thing that gets people is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead.

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