I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps honestly.

gig company reclassifying workers. I've been dealing with this for about 2 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 7 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

I've dealt with this before.

I ended up having everything documented, which cost about $3-6 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

Most folks screw this up by is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

I've dealt with this before.

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.
