Companies who do this to workers.. at Christmas time...
Trump knows there will be those thousands of workers in the mix of all this! jobs gone! The economy is up and they throw their monkey wrench into the mix... I don’t blame Trump for being upset with them.. and he’ll carry through with his threats!
I have a son who worked for Verizon for years, as a tech... they started laying off .. every 6 months they let a few thousand go.. kept that up for the past 3 years and today there are NONE of those workers (managers included) from that time period left. All of them are gone and Verizon is run by a whole new batch .. younger and less pay. But it’s a hard row to hoe when that many lose jobs. Especially at age 50 and above.
#16 The company I work at hired a new manager 8 years ago who after a year started firing or driving people out. I am the last of the original group. I am lucky (I think) as I am 60 (and good looking) so they may fear age discrimination lawsuit. What is funny now is a new big boss was hired recently that the manager and director report to. That new guy fired 3 high up managers so they may be worried for their jobs.
AT&T’s contractor used to hire and “train” tech support personnel, taking advantage of government subsidies to cover their wages: 100% for the first month, down to 0% for month seven. They ran batches of employees through, ratcheting up the metrics standards to eliminate workers within six months.
I wonder if they’re still doing it.
