I work in TN - I am the solely employee in TN- My home office is in GA - More than 30 employees. The company overall has 150+.
I have worked at my company for 3 yrs. Just yeterday my company says they are going to either give me the choice of a Commision Sales structure or a Severence package. This consist of either choosing to go Full Time Sales or they will close my office "down" and I will be without. I am 4 months pregnant. I have prior business and I have made money from the customers I have in TN for my company. It will be hard for me to find another job - especially being pregnant and also for compensating a $55,000 year job. Especially since they are only offering me a commision structure - That is taking away from my salary I make now.
My questions are - Do I have any kind of case against them for the layoff/fire.
Since it is a "pre existing pregnancy - How does that work?
They have offered me transfers to ATL or DFW - Why couldnt I do this from my home (there ARE employees presently that work out of their homes)
What kind of severence package do you think they owe me?
Do I need to get involved with a lawyer?
Thanks much.
