“The essential elements to pleading an action for constructive discharge in violation of public policy under California law are: 1. Employer-employee relationship; 2. Plaintiff subjected to working conditions that violated public policy; 3. Defendant intentionally created or knowingly permitted working conditions; 4. Working conditions were so intolerable that reasonable person in plaintiff’s position would have no reasonable alternative except to resign; 5. Damages; and 6. Working conditions were a substantial factor in causing plaintiff’s harm.”
