I would.give them Monday to pay me even up, after I cashed the check I had at their bank. If they wouldn't make it right on Monday, I would say, "I'm giving you my 2 weeks notice, but my last actual day on the job was last week".
How much notice will they give you if they are going to terminate you?
And the other folks are correct. If they go under it might be an at once and done thing.

You need to be the first one to cash your pay check at their bank, do not deposit it at your bank.
From my experience TWC will file a claim for you as long as the company is not in bankruptcy proceedings. Just remember they are funded by employer contributions and are more interested in keeping your company as a sorce of funding than getting your pay checks cashed. If the company is in bankruptcy they're going to most likely let the bankruptcy court settle your claim pennies on the dollar while the lawyers make off like bandits.

Well known that this place is having financial problems.
Thanks for the advice folks. I'll call HR on Monday. I posted this within minutes of opening the envelope from my bank with the returned check

Been in that same situation, yes they can fire you if you don't show up lol, but they still owe you for what you worked and if you continue to work. In my case I kept going to work and they eventually caught up but I was careful to immediately cash future checks and not spend the money before they cleared.

I would talk to HR Monday morning. This does happen, but is rare... Many larger companies have several different operating accounts. Someone probably forgot to move enough money to the payroll account this month.. not surprising if they are short on cash to begin with...
You might want to start looking for a different side gig, batman.

Again, Have you called the bank the payroll check was drawn on, especially if it is a local bank? If it is as big of a company as you indicate, they probably have an out f town bank for payroll.
Have you asked your bank to try to reclear/redeposit the payroll check?
What is the name of the company? We may can assist you in checking out their finances.

As a banker sometimes I see checks bounce for good companies but 9/10 times it's a Positive Pay issue and not a cash in the bank issue. Positive Pay is a fraud protection service that banks offer. It requires the business to enter all check info into the system so that when a check is presented to the bank its verified through this system. If the check wasn't entered by the business, it will bounce. This means fraudsters get blocked but it also means if a bookkeeper forgot to put your paycheck into the system then you don't get paid.

The system they used (probably the same one) required the entry of each check and it was during the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. The data entry was not made so the checks were not valid.
