I've come across a huge SF-based company that is illegally misclassifying at least a couple hundred corporate workers as 1099 independent contractors. What do I do with this information?

I’d contact the Dept. of Labor and report the company

Will add that if its a large company then usually their board of directors requires that they have some type of anonymous contact number to report violations of conduct, ethics etc. Dept. of Labor is another more accessibly route.

Wait four years for them to lobby a law next election that makes this legal 🙃

But really, what SPD1 said

Signs I’m getting old: I tripped and fell, and somehow partially tore my ACL. Have to figure out if I want surgery, and how to tell the team—at the very least, I’ll need a ton of PT. I’m a first year associate and the only woman on all of my teams, so I’m freaking out about how this is going to reflect on me. I know I’m overthinking this, health comes first, etc…but I’m still so scared to tell people.
