The Company hired a SMO (Separation Manager Official). Employees were not notified of the Veyer Company change on their paychecks.

When will this end?

Two more locations are closing in NJ. How many is that this year? I've lost count. Why isn't management doing anything to make sure closings are not necessary? Do they not care? I'm tired of thinking about layoffs and possible closings 24/7. What... —  read more
