Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
This company not only screws their members, they also screw their employees. I've read some of these reports and many of them say--they have never received a reply--I can tell you, you did not receive a reply because management would not let us reply to you..the employees were told, process only any revenue items and don't reply.

I have worked for this company for many years and 15 years in my current position. Now I am told I am not qualified to do this job. However, the additional 8 people in my department are.

Some of them speak spanish so they have the upper hand in this department.

Have many of you noticed the language barrier? That's because they have sent our work to Panama, India, and the Dominican Republic.

This company has been in our city for 50 years and it used to be a very good company to work for, but not anymore. Most of the time, many employees are on stress leave due to the way they are treated.

Some of us are abused, mistreated, belittled, and discriminated against, oh, but not if your friend or relative is in management. I know some of you think when you call in you are dealing with morons, but please don't blame the Representatives, they have to do what they are told or be unemployed. These people love to fire their employees, but for some of us that's the only way out.

I expect to be unemployed very soon. You see, we are dealing with morons too....the management of this company.

Soon to be fired.

I knew it would happen. Without going through the whole story again.. I made an appointment with the Doctor and was given a 6 week stress leave and was making an appointment for some counseling, after all, dealing with the way this company treats you, you need all the help you can get. This took place on Thursday. I followed company procedure and gave the excuse to the company nurse. She gave me FMLA forms but I had not had time to take them back to the Dr. to complete. Monday morning at 11:20a.m. I received a phone call (at home) from the personel office telling me I was no longer employed with the company. What low-life people..I'm glad I don't have the stress of this company on my shoulders any longer, but I wish there was something I could do. They should not be able to get away with treating people this way.
