- They will low-ball all contracts just to win, then cut workers and dual-hat others with no compensation. To support a USMC customer, they cant even source a qualified Fires Analyst (well they can until Cubic makes an offer).
- Took full-time positions and created exempt, regular/part-time positions--about 85% of the billets. Workers required to put in 1632 hrs/yr and then "not required to show up unless you have a deliverable due" (Cubic's words). In practice, they expect you to still attend every meeting so the customer can have you standing by in case a question comes up.
- When a good employee--one with unique skills decides to leave (we have lost a bunch and their replacements--the ones willing to work for the 30+% paycut everyone took, are no match), management finds a way to come up with a creative solution to get these people more money. The end result is that this further alienates the rest of the workforce.
- I have never been in an organization with morale this low. Cubic recently completed an employee engagement survey--I would like to have participated in that one. Pre-2013, gut feeling is that the number would have been in the 90's. Today, I believe we are talking single digits.
- Now that I have given up hope for this contract and am actively exploring other opportunities, I cannot wait to leave and salary increases wont fix this problem for me--Cubic has brought nothing but negativity to this contract.
