Please help my Orchid!

I recently saved this Orchid from the trash at work. I repotted it from its original small plastic container into a larger well draining pot with better gro special orchid potting mix. I moved the mix today to check the roots because I realized I didn't see any aerial roots. I found they aren't looking so good despite a new leaf recently emerging.
This was my first time repotting an orchid so I'm scared I messed it up. What should I do to save this little guy?! #helpneeded

I wouldn’t worry too much right now. The aerial roots were probably struggling before and you’re just now noticing. I’d trim back the dead roots and then see how it progress over the next month. How do the other root look?
