Would someone confirm this. I left in 2018. I wish you all the best and good luck as we battle through this pandemic.

CONGRATS TO THE EXECUTIVE TEAM...

Down 3 for the week, down 276 for the year. Looks like whoever called 800 hit the nail on the head. NP selling $50 OBM ain’t helping margins either

Age discrimination at NP???

Just look around you - what's the one thing you notice? The faces that are looking back at you are getting MUCH younger after every layoff, and older employees are few and far between. Is there really nothing to be done about this? It's certainly not... — read more
