Worst company to work for

Highly political working environment. Everytime people having fear of layoff. No respect of individual hard worker. Cunning managers when they need they hire and next year fire. In last so many years I never seen such working culture.

Sales/IT Layoffs

New set of layoffs coming - unfortunate! Why would they do this to us when it is record unemployment? They could've done it like Tesla/Google - to cut pay and keep everyone.
