I’m over 50, was gaslighted and then laid off by this company a year ago. I got the last laugh: I landed a job at Amazon with a 50% pay increase, stock options and a huge cash bonus.

Companies are great because they have good leadership with great foresight and hire the best people they can find.

Happening at my store right now. 4 older people were written up for " numbers" , yet the young punks with similar numbers are not getting written up. The older employees are being " coached" several times a day, the young peeps, not so much. It seems we are being " coached" out. I can say the older reps are looking into union representation. Seems the only thing left as the company continues to screw over it's employees.
Unfortunately it does. Good Article.
