I am in the mortgage industry. I was heavily recruited by a California company who is opening a branch here in Vegas. I interviewed with 3 VP's on August 5th and was slated to be Branch Manager. There were several delays about sending the offer, in the meantime I continued to interview. I was finally contacted by the VP and instructed to speak with the local person who was assisting with the branch opening. When I met with this individual the offer was changed; he offered me a Loan officer position with no base, or a Processor position making about $10 per hour (I was insulted). I contacted the recruiter and declined the offer. The Branch Manager called me and offered me the Senior Processor position with the long range goal of Processing Manager in the future. Long story short, I gave a weeks notice to my employer and started with the new company on 9/15. It was clear to me on the first day that the company wasn't prepared for a Processor, this gave me a lot of concern. Yesterday (9/23) I was called into the Branch managers office and told that they were letting me go because there was enough work for me. I am angry, because not only did I left a place where I was making money, but also turned down several other offers to accept theirs and I am now unemployed. The VP contacted me (after numerous calls) and told me that they would pay me to the end of the month.
I am am bewildered and would like to know if I have any rights here. I was told that I could file a compliant with the EEOC or Labor Commission. Nevada is an At Will state, but there must be something that I can do. 2 weeks pay just isn't enough.
