At what point do we stop letting executive ‘leadership’ push us around?
They have taken away benefits that effect tenured employees, first the PTO cap and now the pension freeze.
They have favored young employees with new and expanded benefit offerings, like expanded maternity leave and student loan assistance.
They have given such paltry ‘merit increases’ that real salaries go DOWN year over year due to inflation.
They forced us to get vaccinated, or lie about our religious beliefs to avoid it.
They have rewarded the brown-nosers over the experienced, leading to a mass exodus of institutional knowledge and a chorus of cheerleaders too afraid to disagree.
They have spent MILLIONS on high powered consultants to tell us how to run our business, then failed to execute time and time again. PWC, McKensey, E&Y and Deloitte are never going to know our business better than experienced tenured employees!
They have laid off hundreds of employees, planned poorly for how to get the work done without them, and spiraled into a situation where the employees that haven’t left yet are either over-worked or apathetic.
It seems to me that the status quo isn’t working and leadership isn’t listening. Maybe its time to organize. Maybe its time to form a Union.
