Add Comment Question: I was fired with cause. I asked what the cause was and they gave vague high level answer “conspiracy to undermine the company”. They said they had hard evidence. I asked to see it and they told me they didn’t have to. Answer: The threshold for cause is very high and difficult for an employer to reach, as such the company likely did not have cause to terminate your employment.
