Reported my former employer to the labor board!

I'll post screenshots once the case is closed. My job offered bonuses if you reached certain quotas. I wound up leaving the job due to reasons detailed in posts on my main account (namely a horrible upper management and being told to ignore covid symptoms because the rest of the team had covid and they needed me).

My job offered bonuses if you reached certain quotas. I wound up leaving the job due to reasons detailed in posts on my main account (namely a horrible upper management and being told to ignore covid symptoms because the rest of the team had covid and they needed me). I quit without two weeks notice after ensuring that my bonus from the month before would be safe.

When the bonuses were due to pay out mine didn't arrive. They tried to tell me I forfeit it when I quit without notice and that it was at their discretion. I looked it up. They 1. Can't change the agreement after the money is already owed and 2. The wording on the bonus agreement is that they can amend it. Not that it's at their discretion. In my state amendments again cannot happen after the fact and also have to be agreed on by both parties. When I pointed this out they proceeded to say they owed me no more information and gave me attitude about it.

I called the labor board. As of a week ago: there is now an investigator on my case. I finally got the confirmation that I am owed money provided there isn't anything in the books I missed and my investigator is looking them over. After everything that company put me through: I am so incredibly happy. I've already started telling everyone I know who left the job and were denied a bonus to look into reporting them as well.
