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

mass layoff without WARN Act notice. I've been dealing with this for about 2 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 2 years. My position is exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

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

A lot of people mess up by is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.

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

Here's where people usually go wrong is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process 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 document everything. That's the general rule anyway, exceptions exist.
