I’ve just learnt that my SO had reported on her creepy manager at a startup few years ago and got herself fired 2-3 weeks later. They asked her to signed some sort of NDA to collect severance. Does anyone know what type of legal assistance she can still look for if any? Any advice much appreciated.

Nothing. She signed an NDA and took the money. She has no more civil claim assuming she signed it away.

Does she has a record of reporting the manager? Can she prove she was fired due to the reporting of the manager? Are there other women? What does the NDA say?

Also why is she looking for something now? Not saying she doesn’t deserve anything, but if it’s a few years old it’s hard to go after the company now unless there is some sort of class action.

The NDA doesn't necessarily mean that she has no legal recourse.

Talk to an attorney. They'll know for sure what to do.

She signed her rights away, no?

No

Colleague has put in his resignation. They are offering him whatever he wants to stay including 4days a week work from home. He’s not bluffing and plans to leave. However, at this same time I was asked to begin working as a supervisor for the engineering team and I would get a promotion at the beginning of the year. I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.
