Non-Compete Agreement Enforceability in Virginia

I've been trying to resolve this in Virginia on my own but I'm stuck.

employer changed my status to contractor. 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 exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

Ngl have you tried reaching out to your state's labor board? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
