What typically happens in a harrassment dispute between a large employer and employee? What are some typical outcomes of settlements?
Consider, for example, a case of harrassment and bullying (shouting, intimidating gestures, telling provable lies about work performance), offensive age-based remarks, and possible but not provable stalking. How would such a conflict be settled?

general harrassment and bullying are not actionable. in fact, your employer can treat you like total garbage and yell at you all day every day, call you worthless, dumb, and imbred and you still wouldnt have a viable cause of action.
the hook is whether they do any of that because of your membership in some protected class. that said, i have been practicing employment law exclusively for four years and our clients will generally settle if the initial demand is under $10k, but every dollar above that they look at as if they have to spend at least that much in fees in order to settle. so if you demand $20k, they are going to say, well lets spend 10K to see if we can get this dinged. moreover, no employer with counsel with any brains settles during the eeoc investigation unless we are talking about absolutely clear cut stuff - sexual assault, using racial profanities, etc.
hth.
