The other thing to bear in mind is that a signed contract doesn’t mean shit unless you’ve got the money for attorney’s fees to enforce it. And having just been screwed out of both jobs like this poor person was, that’s a pipe dream. Yeah some people have good savings and interments that could draw on, but a whole lot of us in the US don’t, even with the salaries in our industry. Either they’re early in their career or have been through massive hardship, sometimes several such hardships (like me). And in most jobs people aren’t paid well enough relative to costs of living to be able to break that paycheck to paycheck cycle, so you’re totally out of luck because unless it’s a case with clear proven malicious intent way beyond the bounds of even the most red of red state loopholes for the rich and other corporate entities, they’ll just give you a right to sue declaration or something and leave you to fend for yourself. Speaking from experience here. And no, contrary to popular belief, attorneys don’t always take good cases on contingency, especially one that could drag on a while. Why wait 2-12 years for a fat payday, no matter how sure a thing?
