Please be aware that company is going around and laying people of with out cause and making then sign paper saying that they will receive there pay as labour standards time frame. Which is not happening it’s been over ten days where employees were let go but never received there final pay. If someone may go through situations like this please be aware of your rites and your areas labour standard laws. Basically company is jerking there ex employee with there hard earned pay cheque’s now. This is not including Severance money.

I was let go as I was the only naturally born citizen and over 40 from my team. Therefore i was the most experienced and highest paid employee for my skillset. They made up a B-sh-t excuse, and HR turned a blind eye. It took many people for me not to sue worried about my name becoming public and stigmatized. Management at WFT only cares for their own a-s. They did not pay vacation I earned and didn't take as I worked overtime for the team.

Lifelong, I would say deserve, as you remember just as the bust happened, WFT started letting go of employees, and paid off their vacations. They work they earn it. I feel sorry for those employees.

Deserved? You deserve nothing. Wft owes you nothing. Your vacation is now

Hey lifelong, what about vacation? I hear WFT cheats out workers of deserved vacation compensation.
