Layoffs.com has major TDS
Do you notice that any pro TRUMP post eventually gets deleted? For example, why did they delete the reply to the TDS post regarding the economic numbers? I don't really care to much, but I enjoy pointing these things out.

Watch your emails and IM 's
They are looking at them and writing employees up for non-work related content. No jokes, no whitty banter, nothing personal. Always use your cell to communicate.
Who would join a company with this reputation?
How are we still hiring people? What are they telling candidates to make the job sound good, now that the word has gotten out about all the cr-p we go through on a daily basis? I can't see why anyone would accept an offer here right now.
