paycheck_to_paycheck_16 OP

Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

denied reasonable accommodation for disability. I've been dealing with this for about 11 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 2 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?

NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Every situation is different so YMMV....

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

I went through almost teh exact same thing.

Here's where people usually go wrong is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

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.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. But yeah, have someone look at your specific situation.
