The syntax for List<> support in dapper is slightly different than in an actual T-SQL query. See: https://github.com/StackExchange/Dapper
DELETE FROM [Employee]
WHERE EmployeeId in @empIds
It does not require braces around the IN clause's parameter. And you can just pass an IEnumerable<>. Like this
new { empIds = new[] { Guid.NewGuid(), Guid.NewGuid() } }
