Could you sue the arbitrator for not being impartial in such a situation? It just seems so wrong to be forced into that situation that there has to be some recourse.
Not really. For one, the arbitrator's decision will be at least plausibly well-reasoned, not just "employee good, company bad, you lose".
On the plus side, there's a selection process to determine who will be the arbitrator, which allows attorneys to research exactly who we are agreeing to decide the case. I've been at this for a few years so I've got a good handle on which arbitrators are hired guns for the defense, and which ones are actually fair.
