Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

The Abused Contingent Worker

Wells Fargo’s abuse of its contingent staff has gone unchecked for far too long! Se-ual harassment, bullying, hostile work environments, participating in forced fraudulent actions are just a few of the mounting violations the contingent workforce has been subjected to for years! These folks are subjected to inhuman treatment because Wells leaders know they can make a call and terminate the contract without even a question or concern being raised. The daily degrading treatment is unbearable but tolerated because these folks have to feed their families. The double edge sword of reporting the mistreatment to their consulting firm exist because at the end of the day the consulting firm sees them as a a mere individual vs a corporate contract that they are not willing to lose.

if you are a contractor, you're picking a lifestyle. don't btch and moan about it because it is 100% not a dirty secret. You get paid a premium over an employee of a company doing the same work to compensate you for all of those downsides.

If you sell yourself to the devil, the devil always gets his due.

No one abuses you more than the consulting firms. Wait until it is time for your next assignment.

Former temp here. Companies that "chew through people" get a bad reputation, and the temp agencies stop sending their best people there.

I was a contractor and it is true - your agency is like your pi-p. They do not care about you as a human you are just a number.

I call BS. If you are with a temp agency, ask for another assignment if you hate it that much. I started as a contingent worker so don’t tell me how the agencies work.

You are probably mad because Wells will not hire you on full time.
