Vaccine layoff

Big surprise, they're pushing a possibly unconstitutional executive action to mandate jabs in the arm by December. No word on how they'll safeguard that personal medical information, and how they'll compensate for side effects of the experimental... —  read more 

Writing on the wall

With diversity officers, inclusion councils, and thought management roles, it is clear the focus has shifted to pandering to social movements. The change has been subtle at the company so far but gaining speed in the past year. This might not be... —  read more

HR Layoffs

A handful of layoffs in HR. No management... of course. I thought private equity was supposed to be ruthless; it doesn't seem much has changed since the acquisition. Still the same leadership mentality... belly up to the BAR, guys.

More gone today!

Won't hear about this on the local news (or any news). Those who are gone need to start going to the press and exposing it all. supposedly they aren't even giving you your vacation time left or anything. I have heard they aren't fighting any of... —  read more

More happening today

Administrative aides were let go today. 22 of them. Document control was slashed today. More coming before end of July (two days from now). Why isn't local news on this? You'd think they would be on this?

Leaders—Ha

All of the so-called leaders are nothing more than bullies who hide behind their emails. Confront them and watch them cower and hide. You all deserve better than the losers you have running that place. Just remember, they’re getting paid. You’re not. —  read more
