[quote=paramount]To answer your last question: Absolutely, yes. Maybe it’s the fear that motivates, just last week I worked 21 hours straight over 1 day. Got some sleep and then went right back to work.
Last week alone 25+ people were let go.
There is NO sense of job security; that is understood.
Pension Gone: Check
Vacation Time: Cut in half
401k: What a joke, 50% up to 3%. I cashed mine out last year (more or less) and bought a second house. To this day I still think it was a good idea (sort of), but who knows…
Medical Benefits: Bare bones, I have so many medical bills (and for routine stuff) I literally can’t keep track.
Sick Time Gone: Check
Job Security Gone: Check
Holidays Lost: Check
And on and on…
I’d say in 2006 we probably had 2000+ employees on site, today certainly less than 1000.[/quote]
paramount, it sounds like you (and your fellow “co-workers”) need to be unionized … and PRONTO!
