Hypothetical question

Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

hostile work environment complaint ignored. I've been dealing with this for about 7 months 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.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?
