She should go and get the unemployment pronto. Just because he said he wouldn't dispute it, doesn't mean he won't. Also, she should review her employee file for what they really said about her. She should take a portable copier. They do make them very small nowadays. Very discreet. Then, she has to decide how to get a good reference from the company, and then start applying for other jobs. Maybe she could start her own company?
I agree with above. At-will employees are subject to discrimination, and it doesn't sound like anything provable occurred except discrimination against people who work from home. It also sounds like she called his bluff, but still didn't win. That's their decision to make.
Chin up, Baby Girl. One day this will all be in the distant past. You can make it. And, maybe the guy redoing the department will fire all the best people, and get fired himself for screwing it up.
It's also possible that this company is going under or going to be sold, and it's the best thing possible for your daughter. Have her get her unemployment.
