Facing issue of retaliation at work. After I set boundaries around unpaid overtime 4 days later I got hit with a formal write-up full of vague, exaggerated claims—despite a positive review in January and last year as well. Multiple coworkers have left recently over low compensation, and now we’re being pressured to pick up the slack. I have documentation to back myself up, but I’m debating whether to consult a lawyer or try to handle it internally. Anyone been through this—what would you do?
