This also happened to me but I documented everything and negotiated an exit plan as I knew they were out to get me after reporting the issues. However, in your case you should reach out to a lawyer. HR protects the company not the employee. Good Luck!

Yes... and don't allow them to drag you into Arbitration, if you can avoid it! That's the employer's territory and that process is designed to help employers more than employees

The same thing happened to me at PNC Bank a few months back. I reported my manager for her constant racially insensitive troupes she made towards the black and Latino employees of the bank. I was placed on paid leave while they investigated my claim. I was left on paid leave for exactly 30 days then called and terminated over the phone.

My friend, seek legal counsel immediately! What they just did is a serious violation against federal and several state laws. You were a victim of “Retaliation”. Under multiple State and federal laws, employers are forbidden from engaging in any sort of Retaliation against an employee who has lawfully submitted a report, filed a suit, appeared as a witness, cooperated with the authorities, took any legal action, or launched a formal or informal complaint about illegal activities occurring in the workplace. These illegal activities can include Wage & Hour violations, Sexual Harassment, Discrimination, Fraud, Tax Evasion, Abuse, or any other unlawful activities.

Lawyer up and I’m sending prayers your way. You’re winning this one for sure 👍🏼

Same thing happened to me at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley. I made the mistake of thinking HR would be on my side. Quite the opposite. They are nothing more than the lap dogs of the institution.

My advice: Record *everything*. DO NOT SIGN *ANYTHING*, and start the process of taken them to court. If you want to smell like a rose, start by saying to just want your job back.

After rejecting big companies like Infosys,Wipro, etc. I've joined EPAM Anywhere due to wfh permanently and it's perks. But after spending 1 and half month HR called me to search the opportunity outside of EPAM, means they're laying off people. It's unfair behaviour of the organisation. I've given some interviews they're playing interview interview with me, for the hiring process technical interview then for project - technical interview, client process - starts from 1st Round.EPAM Systems
