[quote=Anonymous]OP - keep in mind that claiming discrimination is a bell that cannot be unrung. I have practiced on both sides and in my experience, the end result of a single plaintiff case is that the plaintiff almost always has to find a new job. Even when they have a good case the end result is a settlement that requires the employee to leave the company. There ends up being too much bad blood for the work relationship to continue. I have never represented an employer who told me, I'm glad that employee brought this problem to our attention via litigation so that we could fix it. I'm not sayng you should not proceed. Just go in with your eyes wide open. I've seen too many employees file a claim thinking they were going to win a six figure settlement, a promoting, or their bosses fired, only to end up with a separation and settlement agreement, attorneys fees paid for, $10k (before taxes) and the need to find another job.[/quote]
