Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.
supervisor making racist comments. I've been dealing with this for about 14 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.
I have worked at this company for 4 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.
Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?
Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.
What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.
Following this thread — I'm in a very similar situation. Would love to hear how it turns out.
I've seen this play out several times in my field.
The biggest mistake people make in this situation is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.
I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.
NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.
