That sucks I hope they listen to you and don't try to make it miserable. I've worked for small companies and they have their downsides as much as corporations unfortunately.

It's not a small company, there are several thousand employees and more than a hundred at my location 😭

But I will win because I have an infinite well of stubbornness. Even if winning means I choose to work at a less shit place but put the fear of god in them about how badly they are fumbling their legal responsibilities before I go.
