Legal Question in Employment Law in California
I was a temp and converted to "full-time". When negotiating employment, I negotiated with the understanding that I would go to school in the evening. My manager understood and even wrote a letter of recommendation for my school applications. My company is worldwide and we have offices all over. I only applied to schools near our offices. Once accepted I was told I could only work out of shared-services facilities. However, this was not mentioned to me before and we do not designate or title facilities as a "shared service" location. So, there was no way for me to know which facilities would constitute a "shared service" location before applying. Further, my team is located in various satellite offices all over the world.
I live in CA, an at-will state. My management does not want to fire me nor do they want to lay me off. They are instead trying to force me to quit. If I do this, I do not get my EDD benefits. Do I have any legal options in this type of fact pattern?
