I'll keep this short, but am willing to answer any questions. I am pretty sure I have a case against my recent employer but want to make sure I do, and want to know what steps to take.
My division manager made a comment to me about "women being more sensitive than men." The area manager who works under the division manager reported the incident to HR. I never saw the area manager again because right after he was moved to a different facility. I reported the incident to the division manager's boss. I emailed him using my work email. On Monday I went to log into my email and couldn't because my password had been changed by the company. When I returned to work I was unable to log into my computer at all. All my passwords had been changed. The new area manager pulled me aside and said that himself, the division manager, the VP, and the HR manager had a meeting about my email. They decided I wasn't performing well as an assistant manager and even though I wasn't receiving a demotion, I was to only be a supervisor. I was also stripped of many duties needed to do either of those jobs (no longer allowed to write people up, promote people, or have employees contact me if they weren't going to make it in). I was so upset I ended up quitting (stupid, I know).
I could understand better if I was in fact performing my job incorrectly, but two weeks prior to this I had a positive performance review with a raise. What do I do from here? Thanks in advance.
