When I worked for Lockheed Martin, the division’s head was a black woman, executive VP, initials L. Gooden. She is a big zero supporter and gives a lot of money to the democrats. Some parts may be redundant but in a different post here in FR today, here is what happened since she became head of the division
- cracked down on the dress code, no more casual Friday’s and the shirt you wear has to be a long sleeve button down shirt
- when you take vacation, you have to make up the time off with extra unpaid casual OT
- Five hours of unpaid OT required each week
- Pay scales reduced, no pay reduction, therefore no more pay increases in order for your pay to move from the top end of the scale to the middle
- no more leaving early on Fridays even with your 45 hours in
- The exec VP has a reputation of being a micro-manager. She has paid visits to the Colorado site and ordered people sent home for wearing jeans to work
- One of the VP’s that was employee friendly quit and went to a different company. The Exec VP took the pleasure of calling him in once or twice each week to chew him a new @$$hole and he had enough. He put his two weeks notice for a new job and he was escorted off the premises and was permanently banned from ALL LM facilities
In that company, I had a manager who was a liberal democrat and he was horrible to work for. Had many run-ins with him I mentioned here in FR.
Also many years back, company I worked for in Indiana, the executive VP was also a democrat and she was stingy on pay and stingy on how you can use your vacation benefit too such as not being allowed to take time off during the Summer and the excuse was fiscal year started on Jul 1.
> The CEO of the company I work for is a woman (and a Dem. to boot). Under her “leadership” employee benefits, pay, and consequently morale has dropped like a rock.
I've been escorted off premises a couple of times, myself. Didn't mind it a bit - in fact it covered my butt. There was no question of me leaving any time bombs ticking in the computer systems, and if something DID blow up, there was no question of me being responsible for it.
In fact, at the last job I left, I gave them a list of all the accounts and passwords that I had, with the recommendation to change all of them after I was gone. No idea if they did or not (I don't care) but I didn't want there to be a sniff of impropriety.
But otherwise, she sounds like a real ball-busting bitch. I'll take a wild guess that there were a bunch of engineers in her division (it is LM, after all) ... and she was not one of them.
