YOU ARE ALL FU**ED START THINKING ABOUT ANOTHER CAREER IF YOUR SMART
Nlrb Vs Cablevision/altice
Saw this on the Nlrb website active cases, very interesting and insight of how Companies spy on their employees. https://www.nlrb.gov/case/02-CA-138301
Do I understand this properly? The company has given bigger raises to employees for promise not to vote union in?
If true you guys are very shortsighted.
Happy Altice New Year!
Taking a look at my first paycheck for 2017 and much to my chagrin, I am now taking home less $$. Medical coverage deduction increased 60%. Any thoughts?
Possible New Severance options?
Anyone hear of potential new severance offers? I heard possibly offering 4 weeks per year of service or 3 weeks for every year plus 1 years medical coverage... Any confirm or deny?

I spent 19 years with Cablevision (Bronx) and left in 2015. I saw the writing on the wall before the BS took shape. The Dolans were selling their stock. A french entrepreneur was looking to buy. Cut-backs and management shake-ups were enacted. So, I... — read more
