Need advice - Help!
My wife worked for a company for 7 years. They treated her like crap the whole time but she stuck it out. In the last year, it wouldn't be uncommon to have her crying on my shoulder once a week about how they treated her. She had some health issues at some point and her supervisor never even welcomed her back. Unbelievable.
She hands in her letter of resignation at the beginning of the week. Since they got a new account, they *begged* her to stay. The environment is toxic so they suggested she write a list of demands that she'd accept. Her list was short and consisted mainly of working from home for 2 months, which was an idea initially suggested by the management. When HR got the list, they commented verbally that it was "very reasonable". Today, they said they were accepting her resignation. Totally out of the blue. She calls me absolutely sobbing. She doesn't understand why they would ambush her like that.
She argued that it's not a resignation if they asked her to stay and now just terminated her but they insist they won't be allowing her to get EI. I'm beyond livid and want to know what I can do to fight this. They disrespected her repeatedly and now I want to ensure she gets EI.
Any ideas/suggestions?
