In 2023, I worked for a start up that was not doing so great. Because they were financially struggling and projects were not coming up, they decided to give us two options: 1. we can take days off w/o pay 2. we can work but get paid in company shares. I decided to do the latter and accumulated around $8k in shares.
After I left the company, I asked the CEO for proof of these shares or anything - he said he was gonna look into it. Apparently he discussed it with the board of the company and they decided to pay me instead, cool at that point I didnt really care.
Now it has been around 6-7 months and everytime I call or message there is a new excuse of why I cant get paid... I am getting tired of this, is there anything I can do to get my money? Any part of the government that could help me?
