Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.
severance offer seems low. I've been dealing with this for about 11 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have worked at this company for 8 years. My position is non-exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.
Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.
I went through almost the exact same thing.
In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented.
